our adoption was done through a private agency.
We started with an open adoption plan, but due to crimes committed by the bmom, the plan is now semi-open. We are not in immediate danger, but she does not know our last names, or where we live. All communication takes place through the adoption agency. She is very young and not mature, which is the only reason we are open to becoming open in the future. We have hope that she will serve her time, and become the mom she needs to be to her other children.

Thanks for the advice. I was not hip on professional pictures, because they so often do not let the true personality of the child show through. I was also not sure if pictures of her with other/our family members would be appreciated. She is a beautiful baby and takes wonderful pictures.

I will try to write more descriptive letters in the future. I have to put my own feelings aside. The last letter was just the facts. I had a hard time writing it, because of the struggle I am having with our relationship.

For those of you who pray please pray for M-(the bmom of my daughter) she is young with 3 other children and is facing jail time. She will find out her sentence next week. Her children are in DFACS custody.
