Adoption

Well hello.

So my partner and I have been on the fertility roller coaster for about 2 years now. And I'm simply done with it. I've wanted to adopt from the getgo, I've never wanted to actually give birth, rather, I've wanted to raise a child. So we're in the "picking an agency" to work with phase of things. We've gone round this path before- a few years ago we had started to ready ourselves to adopt when we decided to try to conceive. I'm feeling all kinds of strange things about this- mainly happy that we've made a decision to adopt and then super stressed about the home study, the process, and of course the cost. So I just thought I'd pop in and say hello.
