My husband and I just adopted our daughter in Dec. 2008. She turned 9 in February, and is precious! We went through the state.She is considered "special needs" due to being older, so the state paid all adoption/court fees etc... If anyone is interested in considering a litttle bit older child, think of fostering to adopt.

I haven't adopted but my sister and brother in law have adopted two children just in the past three years. Many people believe adopting out of country is faster but they adopted both children right in here in the states. Both children were placed in their care right after their birth and the adoption was final within the the year. The preliminary stage was quite intensive from what I understand. They plan on adopting at least one more and plan to go through the same agency.
