Thanks for your post. I'm lucky my husband is willing to go along with whatever. He actually teased me for a long time that he wanted eight kids. (no way!) Perhaps you could drag him to a local Families with Children from China event or meeting. Seeing those beautiful faces are bound to touch his heart. Afterward, you could sit with him and explain how much it truly means to you to have a daughter. If finances are an issue, maybe you could play with your budget on paper and figure out where you can cut corners for extra money. You're probably aware there's a $10,000 tax credit for adoption expenses now. This can reduce the cost of adoption to about $6,000.

Let me know how it works out for you!
Heather
