Let me know if you need help because--being in Hong Kong--I can think of 5 families off the top of my head that have adopted from here and Mainland China. Actually, one of the families started an agency called Mother's Choice that encourages pregnant teens to have their babies and give them up for adoption instead of having abortions. And they've adopted four of the kids from the agency. But yeah...figure all of this out because I plan on adopting like 4 kids too, so when I'm ready, I can just ask you! Heck yes!

We think the same thing ... but $$ was always an obstacle ... and now we've had a lot of input that in some of these countries, some of the "orphans" are not orphans but the parents are being paid to give them to the orphanages. Keep us stalkers up to date with what you find in the way of agencies and their reputations ... maybe we can have a flood of adoptions! Awesome!

You and Brian are amazing parents and I love seeing good families having more kids. A child adopted by you would be blessed to be a part of your family.

If I could afford it, I would adopt in a heart beat. I will sure pray for you and your husband during this time, and making this choice. God bless Jenni, ConnieJ I don’t think it’s crazy at all.

I will sure pray for you and your husband during this time, and making this choice.

God bless Jenni,

I just asked an orphanage in China and yes.. the adoption process can take anywhere from 2-3 years... because of the US wanting US citizens to adopt from the pool in the US. But I know that you have always had a heart to adopt and I really think.. after all this time.. if it is still so strong.. it's meant. I completely support you. After all, I also think Jason and I have been called to be an adopting family too. I'll be praying for leads for you.. and of course.. it may not be as seemingly "easy" this time, but I can say that I believe you and Brian are called to adopt. AND I am here for you through the process. Excited for 2nd nephew. I have a toy for him (and Chance). They each get their own. :) Have you thought of a name? I was thinking today how I really liked "Hudson". Talk to you soon. Hi..
