Informative Links
Almost all we know about adoption comes from the Web. Here are the sites we consider to be the best.
Adopting.com
Very informative, with lots of different links about all aspects of adoption.
Between Friends
A comic strip that gives you a good feel for many of the emotions in the adoption process. It covers a couple's struggle with infertility, then adoption.
Homecoming
Today we celebrated 7 years with Antonio, Carmen, and Felix, and 1.5 years with Stephen, Jacob, and Victoria by heading out for some fun on Lake Jordan.
NC Adoption
A nice fast site with lots of information particularly pertinent to adopting in the state of North Carolina.
The Family Network
This is the adoption agency we used. An excellent resource for adoptive parents. Their site will give you a feel for the world of adoption.
