Thank you all for your encouragement! This is great to hear. This morning I screwed up the courage to open up the adoption application we received in the mail a couple of weeks ago. Man, there's a lot to do and think about, but as Angela said, I'll handle it. (BTW, I had forgotten about that from Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway, which I just read!) The next scary step: To tell my parents about our plans. I don't know why I'm scared...my parents are great, but I get the feeling that they'll question our decision. We don't have infertility issues, but we have personal reasons for wanting to adopt.
Thanks again, and please keep the advice coming!
