OMG will David be in charge of packing for JR...utoh.. ... i know at my age . i would be so scared...to take on a child.. but hey JOey with you and David you two can handle the great job of being dad&#39;s<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />You are correct we were originally thinking Foster care... but there were SO Many hoops to jump through just to get qualified..for foster care .. <u>and</u> then we would have to give the child up  at some point.. I didn&#39;t think I could emotionally go that route.. so we decided to go with straight adoption.. we are hoping for  a boy somewhere between the ages of 5-11ish..as far as age goes ... they said no worries but as far as our personal health concerns they do require us to get a clearance from our physician...which he has already confirmed he will do what ever he can do to assist us in this...
