... Places We Have Found Useful ... 

As I'm sure you know, there is a ton of information on the internet!  And I have learned that whereas some of it is really helpful information, a lot of it is just more confusing.  Below are a list of links that we have found helpful so far.  This list will continue to grow as we progress (all links open in a new window)
General Information: 
National Adoption Center  - A good place to start.  
Virginia Adoption Laws - Helpful if there is specific information you wish to look up. 

Other Adoption Bloggers:
Open Adoption Bloggers
- A network of writers from all sides of open adoption

Fundraisers/Financial Links:
Owls for Orphans - Beautiful stuffed animals that are sold in order to help adopting families and orphans
Angel Bins - Helping raise money and save the world

Grants: 
There are so many more than these - but these are the ones that I've applied for and can answer questions on
One More Loved Foundation
Help Us Adopt 
Gift of Adoption
ONEless Ministries

Our Personal Fundraising Attempts:
Just Love Coffee - A portion of all items bought when clicking this link will go right back to us to help fund our adoption.
AdoptTogether - A site that is similar to "GoFundMe", but specific to adoption.

Not flesh of my flesh, nor bone of my bone, but still miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,you didn't grow under my heart, but in it.
