Mavsluva Update

[mavsluva]

Hey folks,

First and foremost, thanks to all of you that shared some kind words in my "Goodbye" thread the other day. That was a pretty awesome read when I saw it last night. I really needed to hear some of that because of what I'm about to tell you.

Unfortunately, the girl who was to give birth to our adopted child had a miscarriage so that brings an end to our adoption journey for the time being. We're both doing well (including the birth mother) and we'll give it a go again sometime in the future.

Thanks again for your kind words and kind hearts.

Grace and Peace,
Mavsluva

Don't lose too much sleep over the Mavericks. They're not paying your bills or sleeping in your bed, so don't let them rule your emotions. I haven't seen any of the games this playoff series, but it appears that they're quickly figuring our that talent can only do so much. Talent with a lack of desire does not take your very far.

true. Ive been watching the games, and its obvious the warriors want it more. Then again, nothing matters because the Suns are taking it all the way. Steve Nash is amazing...now there is a guy with desire.
But you mavs, lol, have the most desire. you coudl beat the suns 5 on 1. everytime I see you post, it motivates me to go work out, ya know, Im going right now actually.

Best of luck in the future. If theres 1 thing about you, its you always know how to make the best out of everything.

sorry mavs didnt mean to hi jack thread, started my own

[mavsluva]

No biggie, Justin.

Thanks again to all that have chimed in. I think the hardest part is knowing that we have TONS of baby items upstairs in the baby's room that we purchased over the past two weeks in an attempt to prepare for this adoption. To see it go all down the drain so quickly is really something. We got the call about 2-3 weeks ago about the adoption and then 2-3 weeks later it's back to step one. A roller coaster of emotions to say the least.

Sorry for your loss, but have faith. God will grant you with a family, and I'm sure you will make great parents.

[pwerfll1]

sorry to hear mavs keep the faith bro, good luck

[CSAR]

You have my sincere condolences Mavs. That's a tough break. I have no doubt that you and your wife will make great parents - I hope it's sooner rather than later.

Best wishes!!

Im in shock, that's so sad, sorry ..

[SMAN12b]

Thanks for thinking of us and giving us the update Mavs....SO sorry about the loss!!! I am sure it is just as hard on you and your wife as it is on the birth mother!! Dont' give up, you more than any know there is a reason for everything. Keep praying and it will come if it is meant to be.

sorry to hear the sad news mavs.. but on a much lighter note..
you are so damn whipped man..
U don;t hang out with your buddies anymore either, do u?

Oh man Pooks, that was hilarious (regarding the "whipped" comment)!

Actually, my wife and I have the greatest relationship. We have a really good balance in our lives and she and I completely respect each others wants and needs. I really can come and go as I please and she can do the same all because of the trust and dedication that we have for each other. I'm a pretty tame individual (imagine that!) to begin with, so there's no need for her to have me on a leash.

But to address your question....You bet I still hang out with my buddies and believe it or not, we do lots of guy things when we're together. The church and my religious beliefs have not emasculated me at all. I think you'd be pretty amazed at just how adventurous I really am. Heck, my wife wants me to get a motorcycle, but I refuse to do so. Motorcycles and Dallas area traffic are like water and oil in that they just don't mix!

good luck with everything...
our prayers are with you
