Considering adoption

Given the fact Ive had 4 miscarriages with no successes, I'm coming to terms with the fact I may wind up adopting. While I did want my own - of course - I do feel adoption is something I could do, emotionally. I have a rather blended family growing up and even now and I know that you can love someone to the fullest extent even if they arent the same biologically.

I am 24 so I KNOW I'm not in quite the right situation to adopt, but I do want to work toward that as a goal.

So basically what I really want to do is speak to people that have adopted, to find out things like:

1. What sort of things do they check?
2. What does the home interviews consistent of?
3. At what point financially do they even look at you as a potential adoptive parent?

Anything along those lines would be greatly useful. I would appreciate knowing things I can do to prepare for an adoption so that in a few years I can begin to the process.

Thanks so much
