Our DD just turned 5. She has always known that she was adopted. The adoption was semi-open. We never met the girl (her choice), but we wrote her letters and she has seen pictures of us and knows our first names. I, however, know quite a bit about her. She didn't try very hard to hide personal information from us. I have several pictures of her and the BF. I have never shown these pictures to my DD. She has never asked me if I have pictures, but she has asked a lot of questions that I wasn't quite prepared for her to ask at such a young age, but that is another story. I only hope and pray that I answer them correctly. Anyway, when should I break these pictures out. I don't feel like I should at this age. I don't want to give her more than she can handle. Should I wait until she is older and asks me more questions about how her Bmom looks? I always thought I would be able handle to this stuff, but I feel like I'm just winging it.
