Ugh, sounds like a nightmare. We're the 5th family in my extended
family to adopt, so we have lots of leads and lots of role models!! We
found our agency ourselves though. We're doing the international thing
and adopting a waiting child because there's no sitting around waiting
to be picked by a bmom, you know? Just kids waiting for families! Pete's
catholic and I'm a 'pretend catholic' - never actually inducted into the
church but it's where I've been going for about 6 years now (I was
baptized a protestant.) Both of us a very religious (Pete wanted to be a
priest until I seduced him! *evil grin!*) but I just can't get the whole
holy roller thing. Not my style, in any case. Sorry to hear Christmas
was so ucky, that gets old REAL fast. I think you're doing just fine
kids or no! :)
We should continue this over email! Drop me a line!
