Susan Backes & Tad White

us ...
Susan, 30, and Tad, 42, have two sons, Jared, 5, and Ryan, 3, and Tad has three daughters, Lauren, 15; Kelly, 13; and Kimberly, 9. We also share our home in Exton, Pennsylvania, with a standard poodle, Rio; a Yorkie, Riley; and two rats, Fox and Raven. I (Susan) am a stay-at-home mom to my two boys. I would like to go back to work part time once my kids are all school-age. My degree is in psychology, but I'm not sure if I will remain in the field. Tad is an insurance agent. We both like music, movies and travel.

our adoption plans ...
Where do I begin? :) As long as I can remember, I have wanted to adopt from China. In fact, it gave me a whole new outlook on turning 30 (LOL). I've always dreamt of having a little girl and can't wait to have her home. Our agency is CCAI. We have requested a child age 12 months or under, preferably 6 months or under. We started the paper chase in October 1999, and our dossier was logged in at the CCAA on February 1, 2000. Her big brothers are very eager for her arrival. She will also be the first granddaughter and great granddaughter in my family (read "spoiled" — LOL). Tad and I feel blessed.
