Question Nicaragua Adoption HELP!!

My husband and I are very interested in adopting a Nicaraguan Child- I am originally from Nicaragua and my husband is caucasian so we do not know where to start the process for adoption- can anyone guide us in the right direction? What do I have to do first? Or should find a Nica lawyer to help us out start the process? or SHould I just go to Nicaragua to visit some orphanages?

I am at a lost since I heard that the govt makes it very hard for foreigner to adopt. But my dream has always been to adopt someone from Nicaragua and I don't want to give up hope- it does not have to be a new born baby- We are definitely willing to travel there anytime.
Do you know of any agency in Nicaragua that does adoption?
Thanks for all your help, it will be much appreciate it!

My advice is to make sure the child you are adopting qualifies as an orphan. Go through an attorney both here and there. Email me if you want to talk about it more. My email is erikajj at yahoo dot com.
