I am scared of the whole referral process. What if I felt no connection with the child they send us? I dont want to wait for years to keep getting referrals.
How do you get over this fear??
I know this sounds terrible, but I am scared of not being able to pick my child out....

Are there any good sites that I can look at to get an idea of the India orphans? IT seems like everything is so limited with India.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!
