Wow, adoption is a long road no matter which way you slice it. We seem to be presented with "possible" scenarios fairly regularly, but nothing pans out... I think it must be like dating, you just know when you find the right one, the one in this case being a birth mother, I guess.
The matching process is a tough one. It makes me a bit jealous of our friends who go international. They have someone who does the matching for them. Still, as I have often been told, If you took all your problems an layed them out with anyone else's side by side, chances are you would take yours back. I guess I have no real complaints, only minor grumbles :)
Well that's it from this neck of the woods! Just three and a half weeks till I leave for a trip to China... I will post some pics as I go.

ugh... that must be so frustrating. I know what you mean abou tthe domestic vs international thing - I often think 'domestic would be so much easier for reason x, and y' but then, as you say... lay all the problems out side by side and it isn't so simple. Hanging in there with you!!
I'm so sorry. My sister recently adopted from Haiti, but the adoption rollercoaster was insane. I know though that her kids really were meant to be in their family. I'm sure it will be the same for you and your family. I'll keep you in my prayers.
