I have not done a whole lot of research on the actual adoption process. I will as we get closer to the process but for now I am reading in forums and blogs about adoption stories. These stories are so inspiring. On both sides of adoptions the parents are so strong in their decisions.
With so many decisions, I have made a real good friend and educator in Carissa. She will be coming on CWC tomorrow to talk about her experience. I can not wait for you to hear her story. Please continue to follow this blog as we decide whether adoption is for us.
Have you ever thought about adopting? What questions do you have?

Thanks Jen! You are great as well!Cannot wait for tomorrow!
Great topic! I'm sure there will be lots of questions in the chat room!
I'm not sure I can handle any kids at all. I've played with my brother's daughters a lot, and they were a blast between like 1 and 2 and a half.
I still love them to death, but once they got to be three, they started getting really smart. Like I like when you can just pick them up and they automatically laugh. Now they're like, "Um, no I am playing with the zoo."
I don't think I answered your question - I guess what I need to know is if adopted kids stop again at 2.5 or so?
Great topic!
I always said if I had more kids it would be through adoption. I was not a fan of being pregnant (I was whiny)
i've always had a place in my heart for adoption. my only problem with it is....WHY is it so hard to adopt?!?!
This sounds like a great book! From the time I was a child, I have always sad I would adopt, and thankfully my husband feels the same way. We are not ready at this exact moment, but in the near future we will be working through the details.
While I am nowhere NEAR thinking about having a child (or adopting one!), I think it is one of THE most selfless things you can do. The fact that you're considering this is proof of how wonderful you both are. Can't wait to hear what you decide!
