DH and I are open to any race and nearly have our homestudy completed. We are currently assuming we will do our placement through the agency that did our homestudy, but I also think they are fairly expensive. I'd like to learn about other agencies that would be less than $13,000 or so all told, because we don't make all that much money and while we can afford this agency's fees, it would obviously be easier on us to go through a less expensive agency. I think there may be a few agencies that reduce fees for AA/biracial babies and I'd love to hear about those especially. Thanks in advance.

Are you open to any age of baby? We adopted through our state which is not only free but offers post adoption help which is wonderful by means of medical insurance and adoption subsidy. I know everyone has a calling as to how they'd like to adopt. I got my youngest son at 5 mo. and my oldest at 13 mo. Though both were drug exposed, both are healthy and happy kids. You can research from my homepage link if you have any questions about that rout.

I was told by my state agency to "not even bother" if I wanted a child under 7, and that rude response was only after about 10 long-distance phone calls that didn't get *any* response. So I'm not impressed with our state agency. I suppose we may go through the hassle of getting licensed with them at some point, but for right now it just doesn't seem worth it.
