Update.
We adopted two boys age 8 at the time. We were matched during our adoption classes and selected as their forever family in October 2003. They arrived home in Pittsburgh on Dec. 2, 2003. Our finalization was in July 2004, which was an incredibly fast process. The birth certificates arrived about three months later. Both myself and my husband are listed as parent 1 and parent 2. We were never discriminated against through out the process. Our caseworker expressed excitement as this was the fasted placement/finalization that she has been involved with in almost 30 years. Our advice; be aggressive and true to who you are as a person and couple. Remember, we have to be better parents because we are gay and lesbian.
