Hello!
You should read "The Kid" by Dan Savage. It is a wonderful story of Dan and his partner and their experience with open adoption. Their birthmother picks them because "they looked nice."
My partner and I are approved in the state of Ohio, and just waiting for a birthmother to chose us. I think that we actually have an advantage over all the other couples, we are different. I look at all the other normal, boring couples who are waiting, and they all blend together. We, on the other hand will stick in a birthmother's mind. Who knows, maybe she will like the idea of two mommies for her child. We realize that it will take a special birthmother to chose us, but since we are looking at open adoption, we are willing to wait for her.
