If we do this we need to be able to find a healthy girl in that age range. I don't think we'd be willing to accept a special needs child. This is mainly a dh issue. His biggest concern with having two children is probably health issues. So going into this I know what our limits are. Dd was sick alot in the first 3 1/2 years and dh seems to have a hard time with this (something other than the basic colds that is) She was just in the ER while we were on vacation with a terrible ear infection, and I knew this would make dh worry about adopting. He's worried about having to deal with twice as many sicknesses. Which I don't think will neccessarily happen. (we expect no child to be perfect of course, but just feel like it might be easier if there weren't any major issues going into it)
I would be interested in the information you have, and what you consider minor correctable issues though. Thanks for the help.
