Thanks. That would be helpful. Both of us are young for our ages, very healthy and active, but we still don't want to have a huge generation gap (we are 40 and 44). We still need to get through the wedding
and the first year together -- we know that there will be adjustments. But as we are adjusting to each other, we want to make sure that we do things "right" so that a speedy adoption takes place after that.
I've just looked at New Hope and Bethany (web sites online) -- both of them require 2 year waiting times. I wonder if there are any that might only require 1 year? That would be our ideal wait time (somewhat similar to the wait time we would likely experience if we were able to have biological children!).
Perhaps a smaller organization would be better? Should we be looking at local groups, crisis pregancy centers, etc? The smaller groups concern me, however -- seems like the potential for something to go wrong would be far greater.
