Another newbie

I have been lurking for about 2 weeks now and thought I should introduce myself. My name is Cara. My husband Raymond and I have bioD Brooke,5 and bioS Will,7. We just sent in the application ,today, to the Barker Foundation to start the process to adopt a baby from Korea. If anyone has had some experience with them I would love a PM to hear all about it.

I visit this site atleast once a day, I hope to get to know you all.

Cara

We're going through another agency so I won't be able to provide any information, but I did want to say hello! Good luck - I hope the process goes quickly for you.
