I am the mom of two kids adopted from New York City foster care. Foster care adoption may be less expensive than international adoption, but I don't think it's any simpler...our kids have been home with us for 3 1/2 years, and due to legal snafus we are still waiting to finalize. Endless visits from social workers, endless paperwork, endless trundling into NYC to see the Law Guardian, the court referee, etc. etc. etc. I too am bothered by the media's trivializing of adoption, and the adoption process, when celebrities do it...I don't think the process is watered down, even for somebody famous. Opinions, anyone? Hi–I am fairly new to reading your blog, but I want to wish OmegaDotter a belated happy birthday!
