Hard to place kids

Hi Jenkay,

We also just got started this year. There are many, many children without physical disabilities available for adoption. Most of them have some emotional trauma from their abusive pasts, but even that varies widely from child to child. When you sign up with an agency, you tell them what feel you are able to handle and they only look for that sort of child for you. Most children never even get to the website before they are adopted.

Timewise if you get things moving, you could probably have a child in your home in five to six months. We attended the required CPS meeting on February 26 and we just completed our training with the private agency. We are hoping to have a child in our home by or before mid-August in time for school to start.

I can recommend a good agency in Arlington if you are in that area.
