		<description>I wanted to add that we are half way through the international adoption process. The wait can be long. I have found a few close friends who have adopted. Just spending time with their family has reassured me that we have made the right decision. There are families out there living the dream. Try to connect with a family and just talk, you will be amazed. Keep your faith strong.</description>

		<description>My husband and I have talked briefly about adoption somewhere down the line... I admire those who take in these children, and with all the orphans that were left in Haiti, I admire those who even *think* about it, that much more!  

I also had no idea about Steve Jobs or Faith Hill..  That&#039;s pretty cool!!

Happy ICLW!!</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t include that one on this list because I felt like that belonged better on the &quot;You Know You Are Ready to Adopt&quot; list, which is considerably further down the lroad than this &quot;Ready to Start Thinking about Maybe&quot; list. :-)</description>

		<description>I think the decision was made for us when we realized that we just wanted to be parents to a child without necessarily giving birth.</description>

		<description>Ummm, does this list apply to those of us who &quot;might be ready to think about adopting again?&quot;  Cuz of those 10, I got, well, tooooo many goin&#039; on as I read them!  :)

Great list. And great job with the brevity. I don&#039;t know what I&#039;d do if I had to limit my words like that :)</description>
