Now to try again after being so rudely interrupted. (Cursed Windows!!! YARG!!!)

Donna and I went to see the folks at Heartsent last night to see about adopting children. The ladies doing the interview were very nice and I think they were about as comfortable with us a s adoptive parents as we were with them. We've received the first packets of paperwork to start the process, Donna believed before we went that it could take as long as a year.

So I asked the magic question: "How fast can we be done?"

They told us there was a little boy available in Taiwan that they needed parents for and that they would REALLY like us to be those parents. So if all goes well, we'll be the proud parents of this little guy sometime around August!!!

We're also planning to go to China for a little girl, so things are finally moving in a direction we've wanted.

Wish us luck, folks and stay tuned to either this journal or [livejournal.com profile] kyburg's for more details.




Wow, me a father... What a concept...

he *IS* adorable, although - as was the case with my brother some 13 years ago or more - sometimes they are more adorable asleep than awake. *g*

You and Donna will be wonderful parents!

Heck the one time you met me you made me feel right at home and I told Christina afterwards that Donna reminds me of my Mom in an awesome way.
