Does anyone can tell me what the financial and living arrangement requirements would be? We have a biological son living with us, which will be 1 yr. in June.
Please also feel free to e-mail me direct at amirahalam@juno.com.
I am looking forward to hear from you all.
Greets,

I was intrigued by your message....we also are in the process of trying to adopt a sibling group of 5 with the same age range. We've completed our Pride training...as far as bedroom requirements, each child should have 40'by 40'....as far as fianancial, I think it depends upon each state...are you by chance from Texas? Let me know, and I'll get you more info.

It has been a struggle, but the rewards are great. We have no biological children. You can read our adoption story at Fell free to contact me directly if you'd like.

Can we submit any other stuff, pictures ect. thanks for any info.
Hey everybody;
I just went before the judge and finalized my latest adoption. A sibling group of 5. This is my 3rd adoption. I have 2 sibling groups of 2 and this latest group of 5. I am totally devoted to adopting sibling groups because I feel it is sad enough to lose your parents but to lose your siblings too is something I want to help them avoid.
So far all of my kids have come from Texas for 2 different reasons. (1) I was a theraputic Foster Mom and did all of my training there and (2) the States of Texas and Florida are both aggressively trying to find their children permanent homes. I am trying to work with some different states but so far I have not found them to be too interested in getting an adoption through. (just my thoughts)
If I can be of any help let me know. Good Luck and God Bless:
