As we searched for the right agency for our family, the questions we kept having over and over were "How much does all this cost?", "When do we pay?", and "Do we have to have all the money up front?"...There were never any clear answers. And, for the record, EVERY ADOPTION (as with biological births) IS DIFFERENT! **
So, we asked a lot of questions and at least got enough of them answered to know that we were ready to go for it.
As we go through this process, we feel it is very important to document expenses and timeframes (dates of service or dates we paid for something adoption/paperwork related) for other potential adoptive parents. If you are interested in learning more about these costs, please email us and we'd be happy to share with you!
We are very private about our other personal financial details, but feel this is an important part of the adoption experience. Hopefully this information can help even just one family in their own journey to bring their children home.
**Also, we want to add that each agency fee, certified document and/or other service will be unique and different. This is only an example of our financial experience.

LOL... you remind me of myself when we first started our process. I will admit I have really fallen apart as far as this is concerned but it is on my never ending list of things to get done! You have inspired me to get to it!
I can't wait to see how your journey unfolds!
