The children were beautiful. We were at the house to just observe them playing and get a transition plan in place. They instantly took to my husband...who is a big child at heart. We didn't really spent any one on one time, well my husband did. The oldest invited him upstairs to help get everyone ready to go to bed. The next visit we had the children had already been told that we wanted to be their new mom and dad. They were affectionate but not clingy. Didn't mind us touching them or redirecting their behavior *which was very age appropriate* I think it was love at first sight! Somewhere in my head though I am waiting for the other shoe to drop...too many stories about the honeymoon phase. We get to bring them home on the 12th
