Tah-wee-ZAH	My cousin adopted two boys from Korea. I don't know what agency she used but they are wonderful, happy and healthy kids. Posted 10/13/05 7:57 AM
ChristineR	That's wonderful news!! Let us know when you hear something Posted 10/13/05 1:41 PM
Susan	Thanks everyone! DH was so cute. We went to the post office together and he kissed the envelope and then passed it to me and he's like, "you should kiss it too....for good luck." I got all choked up. He's been so quiet and nervous about everything and that just made it all so real and emotional. It's so nice to talk about the baby we ARE going to have now instead of talking about the baby we can't seem to create. I hope they call me soon (or send something in the mail.) I want them to call me as soon as they open the envelope! Posted 10/13/05 7:13 PM

Susan	Joe (DH) received a phone call from New Beginnings today. The woman said Joe and I seem like perfect candidates and have been approved to move on to the next step in the adoption process!!! We have to decide which Korean agency to go through now. One is more conservative (accepts fewer applicants), costs more $$, but would be a much quicker process (12 mos from app approval), and the other is a more liberal agency, but takes longer (currently running about 18 mos). She also said the wait for China is less time and less money. We still have our hearts set on Korea now though, and DH and I are so excited that we will likely opt for the quicker, more expensive route. All I know is that I feel like I just got two lines on my pg test today! Posted 10/17/05 9:48 PM
