We have chosen to go this route for several reasons, the first of which is we thought this would be the path of least resistance. Boy, were we wrong! It has taken right at a year to get through the approval process. We were finally approved around the middle of September. (that's it's own funny story!) Secondly, we have a wonderful child already (who DESPERATELY (thinks) he wants brothers and sisters), so we don't feel the need for an infant, and lastly, we want to make a difference here, in our country.
So, we have put in a request for information on a darling sibling group of three children, a nine yo girl, a six yo boy and a five yo boy, the two of which our son will fall smack dab between. Our house will be so full and busy... like music to my heart!
