I'm currently creating a lifebook for my daughter, which is the story of her adoption. I've decided not to tell my daughter about the referral we turned down. . . maybe in the future I'll change my mind, but as far as I'm concerned that wasn't about her, so I don't feel the need to tell her. Maybe when she is older, we'll talk about it. She already knows her adoption story, we just left out the part that we were planning on adopting another child at the same time.
We are currently working on our second adoption and she is so excited for her baby brother to come. I've already decided that she won't know about any referrals we turn down (if we do); it would confuse her and upset her too much.
