"You may be right...
I may be crazy." --Billy Joel
Yes, we may be crazy, but we have decided on China for our third adoption. With two 2-year-olds, time is our friend, not our enemy, so we are ready to paperchase and wait it out to adopt from China. I understand many people are running away from China, especially those wanting their first child, but the long process works great for our situation. We actually started with China in 2006 and switched to Guatemala because we had already waited 5 years to have a child, so we've been there. We hope none of the new regulations will be a problem, and look forward to a Fall 2009 LID. Who else is crazy like us?

Congratulations on your decision to adopt again, this time from China.
We're starting to talk about whether we want to adopt again. Crazy? Maybe. Happy? Absolutely!

DS was born in Guatemala, we're paperchasing for Ethiopia now (hope to complete adoption in early 2010), and are also paperchasing for China (hope for a April LID).
We're a little crazy, too, but feel we have the time to wait!
