I too thought that I wanted a child of "my own" (not meant defensively) but these kids are my own. I don't think that I could love a child any more than I do my two children. I always wanted to be a mom and never gave a ton of thought as to how.
We went through our fertility issues and decided we had had enough and made the plan to adopt.
The short version is you contact an agency, go through classes, have a home study and then wait....and wait....until God finds the perfect one for you.
I would do it over again a hundred times if I could.
Costs vary by state and agency...definitely do your research.
