Hi,
We brought our son home when he was five days old. He turned two in March and he loves books. I decided to make a book about him and how he became a part of our family. The title of the book is "A story about Sammy." The story starts before he was born. It tells about my husband & I and what we liked to do. (the book is done scrapbook style so there are pictures and the words are simple.) The story goes on to tell about how we wanted children, & how sad we were when no baby came after years of waiting...then we became happy when we decided to adopt, etc. It goes on to tell about the big call & all the exciting stuff that happened. I just loved working on the book and Samuel loves the fact that there is a story just about him. Although he is too young to understand what adoption means, at least he'll recognize the word. I think this will open up an avenue for him to ask questions in the future. Good luck!
