Don’t you just love it when you find a new-to-you website chock full of information on a subject you are passionate about? Yeah, me too. Yesterday afternoon I clicked on a link from the AdoptUsKids<\/a><\/strong> facebook<\/a><\/strong> page entitled “<\/strong>Grandparents – How to Support Your Foster Parenting Child<\/a><\/strong>” and, after reading it, realized I was on a yet-unexplored site. And wow. Upon exploring, I found a huge wealth of info relating to not only adoption, but foster\/adoption and foster care.<\/p>\n

I love this stuff.<\/p>\n

Sure, we don’t have a time frame yet for adoption, but that doesn’t stop my research. I love digging up all the information that I possibly can about a subject of interest. It helps me make extremely informed decisions.<\/p>\n

Like last night, we went into Barnes & Noble<\/a> and started playing with the Nook Color<\/a>. When the sales person came up to us, I was able to rattle off all sorts of details from a couple hours of Kindle vs Nook comparative research. It was enough for her to say “wow, you should be doing my job!” So, yes, I am a researching nerd. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

But anywho, here are some great articles on foster\/adoption, but bear in mind that this is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg over at adoption.about.com<\/a><\/strong>…
\nAdopt a Foster Child<\/a><\/strong>
\nHow to Better Understand the Profiles of Waiting Children<\/a><\/strong>
\nHow to Know When an Adoption Match Is Right for Your Family<\/a><\/strong>
\nHow to Know When a Child Is Not a Good Adoption Match for Your Family<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

There are so many great articles all over this site and to try and list them all would be somewhat pointless. Yes, I only linked to a handful of foster\/adoption articles as that is the route we are taking. Like I said, they have everything including international and domestic adoption of infants and older children. It all depends on what you are interested in doing for your family.<\/p>\n

Now go forth and research. <3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
