My kids are three yrs and one week apart in age. My DD adoption took 27 months (I waited 18 months for referral). My DS took 10 months. I waited 39 months before I started process, but started researching a yr after DD came home. It was totally God's timing. My DD had attachment issues and health challenges. There was no way I could have started the process sooner. And as much as my heart wanted to start the process for DS sooner than later my DD and I needed all that bonding time. And I cherish the time it was just her and I (I am single). Everything changes when you have two. It is good, but it is so different going from one to two (and I have really good kids). It is an exciting time thinking about adopting for a second time. Many blessings to you.
