I did give this a shot a few years ago. My intention was to adopt a newborn to 5 years old. Once all the paper work was done and my homestudy was complete it was time to start picking children. The ones i picked were already adopted out or the book keeping was not up todate. For example I would pick a child in the book that was 2. The books were so far behind they should would be 8. This went on for a few months. I got so fustrated I gave up. This agency did not work for me.

We have 2 cousins that were in the process. One adopted a little girl in May '07. The other is trying to adopt through Catholic Charities. Both had their issues with IF. I'm still hoping for a biological child.
