[quote=Anonymous]We are a gay (f) couple and adopted DD at 30 days domestically thru adoptions together. We are white she is AA. Cost was partially based on income, at the time our income was $140k and we paid just over 20k. We got some of that back thru our taxes and my wife’s employer. DD is 9 now and thriving. We celebrate her birthday and her adoption day. Adoptions Together hands transracial support group that met monthly prior to the pandemic and now meets on zoom. We made a couple of friends thru this group with girls the same age and we see them about once a month for a hike or something outdoors. While the girls all enjoy each other now I think their friendship will be invaluable in the teen years and hope they can all help each other if need be with birth family issues they may go thru as teens.
