Hi Calla2414 and welcome, you have started at the right place, this can be a very beneficial experience. It can help with questions you will have and with support. For me the process was slow going in the beginning and unfortunately, I knew nothing of these forums. However, I do have a very close cousin, whom is more of a sister that had adopted (private adoption) whom was very supportive. I think you need to surround yourself with as many people who have "been there, done that" as possible. These people will not only know how to work the system but they ease your fears when you feel that this will never happen. I am sure if you start working with an agency they will be able to stear you to people in your area who you have worked with and if they are like a lot of adoptive parents, they will want to help you and share their stories, knowledge and success with you. Good luck.
