Hi lisa,
my dh and I are in the same boat with you. I have had 3 miscarriages, so we are choosing adoption now. We don't have any children yet, and we can hardly wait to have a child. We do have money in the bank, but we would like to use most of it actually raising a child--you know--college, camps, activities, fun clothes, all that good stuff! Our attorney told us to network everywhere. He said to tell everyone we know and ask everyone we know to tell everyone they know, etc. Have you gotten your home study and all of that? We have all the paperwork done, but it sure was a pain! Do you have a website link with your info on it? We are david and karen from ok. I read about a group of families that wanted to adopt that helped each other network. Maybe we can do that?

by the way, patrick, my husband and I thought your rent-a-kid joke was hilarious--i assume you were joking!
