We would like our children to be close in age, hence the quick decision to do it again.<br /> <br /> I have a genuine fear of starting this process again as the last was one heart-break after the other not to mention very costly. Don't get me wrong, our daughter was worth it a million times over and she is by far the best thing that has ever happened to me. She is really the reason I am doing this again as I want her to have the company of a sister as I had growing up.<br /> During our last adoption process, China decided to slow down and re-evaluate the "rules". It seems that everyday I jump onto new web sites and blogs and hear about yet another country slowing or even shutting down their programs for a bit. It just drags out the process on for what seems like an eternity. I know that I could handle this again (and I would) but now I have a daughter to think about and I don't want her to feel the effects... is it right not to mention it to her? I guess I am just throwing this out to you as you really seem to have your finger on the pulse of adoption around the world.<br /> <br /> My husband and I adopted from China in 2008 (took 5 years from start to finish) and are now thinking about Ethiopia for our next.

I have a genuine fear of starting this process again as the last was one heart-break after the other not to mention very costly. Don’t get me wrong, our daughter was worth it a million times over and she is by far the best thing that has ever happened to me. She is really the reason I am doing this again as I want her to have the company of a sister as I had growing up.
