“I don't know how I'm going to get through the holidays without my son.” Ingrid is sorry.

Throw that bottle in the trash! We’re not going to celebrate anything!”Daryl approaches her, leaving the bag on one of the islands, “Why not, honey?”“I thought we were going to welcome our son.” Diane frets, “What you mean is that we are going to have an interviewer or an inspector who will still evaluate us, to see if we’re decent and responsible people to adopt someone.”“Exactly,” Daryl is confused, “Honey, you know how the
