Our adoption is complete and we are all settling in nicely. Now that we have had time to go through all of her paperwork and info to put in our lock box I am a little concerned. I know at some point she will have questions and want to see what her birthmom looked like and that is perfectly natural. However, her birthmom, in the picture looks sad and a little angry. She also has dark bruises on her arms and a black eye. In general she looks like she had been in a fight. I am a little worried about how Olivia might perceive this when she is older. I do know the birth moms story and reason for placing her for adoption and I have a pretty good idea where they came from. Also she has a cut on her cheek. Just wondering how I might explain them for anyone whos been in a similar situation. Thanks.
