The youngest who is 9 years old is in third grade and these three nephews of mine are living with my other brother. Iwant to adopt the 9 year old. I am 52 years old and married. We have 5 kids. Ages are 30, 29, 26( all married ) 20 years old in college. All 4 kids lives in Chicago and the youngest( 13 years old ) lives with us here in Raleigh, N.C.
    I have a full time job and my wife works part time only inorder to take care of the youngest kid.

    You retain a Family Law attorney to prepare the adoption petition. If the mother is willing, then this should be very easy. If the mother is not willing, most likely its impossible.
