Dear Doodle!
I would love to get to know you. I'm sure this is a trying time and if you need someone to talk to I'm here. What you are doing is an amazing thing. This is our first adoption, we can't have anymore children (we have 1) of our own and are hoping to bring a baby home through adoption. You can see who we are at www.michaelandsheila.blogspot.com

I am not being ugly but this is a hard decision and I have asked if I do not ask you to email me, then please do not, that means one of two things.
1. I am not interested
2. I have not made it to you.
Thank you ↑ |

Hi Doodle, there are a number of genuine and caring people on this board. I think you have found a few of them! My fingers are crossed that you will find what you are looking for.

| Please, no need for thanks. I believe when you adopt, in a way you kind of adopt the whole birth family at least in your heart - not just the child. You all become connected, at least that has been our experience, thankfully. ↑ |

Dear Doodle:
Hi ! We would love to adopt your precious baby daughter !
We are Carolyn, Louis and baby Andrew from Colorado ! We adopted Andrew two months ago from Texas and we have an open adoption with his birthparents.
My husband is a pilot for a major airline, and I am now a stay at home mom; I resigned my job in corporate sales a week before we adopted Andrew, and I just love my new job !
We have a beautiful home in Colorado with amazing views of the Rocky Mountains from our street. We have deer and bunnies on our property every day !
We love to travel, and travel to Orlando every year, December 27th for a week; it is family tradition, with my mom, my sister her husband and her two daughters. We stay onsite at Disney World, one of our favorite places.
We are a Christian family. We are married 14 years, and unable to have children of our own.
Please check out our profile and pictures at:

Doodle,
I wanted to let you know that you sound sweet and I wish you luck. I was going to reply, but we are looking for a semi open adoption, so I just wanted to let you know that I wish you the best.

| Frankly the rude people need to be reported to whoever runs this forum... then they could be properly disciplined and things cleaned up. It is just incredible some of the stuff i have read on here, like a bunch of squabbly children. Good luck to everybody attempting to adopt. ↑ |

doodle,
I have no agenda in posting but to offer support. we have adopted two children and have fully open adoptions (with email, phone contact, letters, pictures with both and also visits with the older child's bmom; not sure visits will be possible with the younger family's bmom due to their personal situation). We are not looking to adopt at this point as our youngest is just a few months old.
Anyway, just wanted to recommend that you pursue independent counseling -- separate from the agency or atty you end up working with and that you and the family you choose are very, very clear about your expectations regarding openness. If you sense any hesitation on openness, run the other way! I would have said to look primarily at families already involved in an open adoption (where you could even possibly speak to the other child's bfamily). But had our older child's bmom only considered families with an open adoption already going on, we would never have had a chance . So, just follow your heart and please, please take advantage of some quality indepedent counseling to help you through this difficult time. Until/unless you place the baby, you are her ONLY mother! I wish you all the best. Feel free to ask any questions about open adoption if you'd like. ↑ |

| My husband and I are looking to adopt. We have been married for a few years now and are wanting to expand our family with pitter patter of little feet.. We would like to have the birth family part of the childs life as we would want them to know their background, but would respect the birthparents wishes either way. Our family is very close as we live all live close by each other. We are big animal lovers as we have 3 cats, and I volunteer at the shelters during the week. My husband is a hardworker as he is a tech at mercedes benz, a jack of all trades, a singer and musican. I am also a musican, painter and I love to draw. We have so much to offer a child that is brought into our life. If any birthmoms like to talk my email is [email protected] hope to hear from you. ? ↑ |

| I was reading and saw you were due on November 9, as thats my birthday also what a great gift that would be, just kidding. Although you must follow your gut feeling as well as your heart to pick the parents. ↑ |
