adopt kids

This is turtle speed. We got in touch with a couple of adoption agencies, and agreed to go with one of them that seems to have their act together—fast responses to both my phone messages and email, recieved mail sent to us within 2 days.

So, they are fast, but now I’m realizing that we have to take this a month at a time, there is still a lot to do. Like classes, licensing, homestudy, etc… It’s all worth it.

I’m calling a few adoption agencies today to set up an appointment. My husband and I found a website that refers children waiting to be adopted in our state. I wanted to adopt them all. But I’m willing to make some adjustments to the previous plan. Hubby really wants a son. Perhaps an older kid, preteen or teen.

We’ve been talking about this for awhile, and we’ve made some big decisions.

Open adoption.

Kids between 0 and 4.

Domestic.

Multi-racial.

At least 2.

It’s time to get started.
