input & reference books

My daughter has 3 biological siblings that are with bMom & bDad. We have a semi-open relationship whereby we send pics & letters thru the agency (I have received only 1 letter from her so far). My daughter has just turned 1 & until now I have always referred to these siblings as brother & sisters but I am afraid that will be confusing as she develops more understanding of language & of family relationships. I am curious to get opinions from others & any sources of information that you have found helpful in this situation. I am an 'information nut' & have read tons on adoption topics but not a lot on this particular situation so any referrals of books, articles, online sites would be greatly appreciated. I think if we had a more open adoption this might prove to be a bit easier & I hope for it in the future but it's just not where we are at with bMom & bDad right now.
