I am also just reading your HTT post and I have to totally agree with you.  We are in the process of writing our profile, getting medical exams, trying to figure out how we are going to pay for this and just today DH said that maybe God is trying to tell us we aren't meant to adopt.  It is very stressful and I feel like things are moving so fast - our home study is scheduled already and the paperwork is so overwhelming.  Not to mention the current economy is very scary....

I think if everyone had to jump through the hoops we are having to in order have a child that there would be a lot less people in this world!!

I just need to vent - no one in my real life understands the pressure and my DH is losing patience with the process.

Thanks for writing!

Isn't it amazing sometimes what we have to go through to be parents? Some people have it so easy, and take it for granted.

Hang in there.

Is there an adoption support group near you?

Thanks!  I know that in the end it will all be worth it.  It is just easy to get aggravated sometimes.  I'm not sure if there are any support groups in my area or not.  I am stretched so thin right now as it is that I do not know where I would find the time to attend anyway.  The good news is that both of our families are extremely supportive and are here for us - it is just easy to get frustrated...
