A story of true trash. And heartbreak.

My wife and I are in the process of adopting a child. We are looking for a child 2 or under, preferably a newborn.

For those who don't know much about the adoption process - it isn't as beautiful of a process as some make it out to be. I mean, it is - adopting a child from bad situations and making it yours is a beautiful thing, but what I mean is nice, suburban teenage girls that get pregnant don't give their kids up for adoption.

All that to say, I have been exposed to some O-T worthy trash in this process. Last night, our attorney called us to tell us that a potential birthmother had chosen another family to place her child.

A little about this birthmother.

Lives is rural Georgia
22 years old
Pregnant with her sixth child
Her 37 year old mother is also pregnant at the same time.
Possibly by the same 45 year old father.

The girl couldn't get over the fact that we lived in Mississippi. We live in Madison, the upper middle class suburb of Jackson.

My wife is heartbroken. I'm pissed. Nothing we can do though. On to the next trashy situation.
