We nearly did, we got our homestudy thru the state for adoption which required we allow our state 3 months for placement - we never got any calls, then we spent 2 months sending out inquiries to other states on children off photolistings, probably 25+ I sent out, nothing. Then we decided to go domestic and we were matched in less then 2 months. We were gettingn pretty frustrated though and the week we got matched we had been in conversations with our homestudy agency about revising the homestudy for international. If we adopt again, we will likely go international.
