Amara is a non profit organization that helps bring children and adoptive together. Jillian found this organization a while ago and after the presentation last night Jillian and I were sold on Amara.
This will be a long arduous process, so let me answer a few questions that you may ask:
Why adopt?
Jillian and I would love to provide a warm loving successful home/life to a child that would otherwise not get one.
How long will it take?
It will take approximately a year give or take depending on your situation.
What is the next step?
Well Jillian and I will probably start taking some classes that are mandatory. But the first major step is on March 5th. And this is when we meet with our adoption agent who will be handling our case from the start to the finish. I think the relationship you develope with your agent can really make you process go smoothly.
What age do you want to adopt?
Between 1 and 3. Jillian and I are not looking to adopt a new born, which can take years. But that is not the reason we are not looking at a new born. We are more than likely fertile and we would hate to take away that chance from anyone who is unable to have a child of their own.
So I guess that covers the basic's if you have any other questions please feel free to ask.
I am going to try and keep up to date on this process so everyone feels like they are apart of the experience, as if Jillian and I were having a child through birth.
