Independent Adoption Center Do something to promote Adoption Awareness Month this weekend! Then share your creative ideas with us!
Tina I am so excited my husband and I decided on the date for the weekend intensive program in Jan. Looking forward to meeting Lauren and everyone else in Atlanta...Lauren has been so great and helpful answering any questions that we had...And we thank her for that..
Barbrara Thumm We have been with the agency for over 5 years without even one call. We have our home study done every year and just added international adoption to our home study. We are not getting any younger, and hope to get that call soon. we want to be able to have some time with our child if and when they go to college or get narried or move away. We are looking to adopt a new born infant or toddler with out special needs.
Shannon My husband and I cannot have any biological children and want to adopt. we were considering doing foster care but have decided for us that adoption would be best. We are already overwhelmed and do not know where to start. We know that we 1st must get a home study done in order to apply for grants to help with the cost but from there we are kind of lost any suggestion.. we will want to adopt an infant or a toddler.

Independent Adoption Center How do you honor Adoption Awareness Month?
Danielle Riddell I think November is an awesome month! We have been trying to have a baby for four years now and have had no such luck! :( We looked into adoption and are trying to save money back but it might take us a while! We are thinking of fostering first, any suggestions?
Independent Adoption Center November is Adoption Awareness Month!!!

I am an author/illustrator and I have penned a childrens book explaining the adoption process from a birth mother's point of view. It is honest, open and heart-warming. I have had many people contact me to tell me how wonderful it is to hear the birth mother's side of the story.
Please pass this along if you know anyon...e that would benefit from it. My in depth story is on my Facebook fan page under Kelsey Stewart, Writer, as well as links that will take you to where the book is available. I have also listed my blog address that is full of more information about my journey as a birth mother.
I hope that this book can help some of you out there,
Thank you,
