There used to be a list of questions that a birthparent and adoptee could ask to get to know each other better.

I found it on this site a few years ago and now I have lost it....

Does anyone know where it is?

How about we start a list??

I would love to know what kind of questions DD might have for me!!

Roni,

That is a great idea. Only thing is I know that there is one on this site somewhere. I got it years ago and then my computer crashed and now its gone. Rats.

Maybe it would be better if we tried it?

I posted the question this morning...no one has responded yet. I guess I need to go and bump it.

What I 've done over the past few months is take those e-mail surveys that get passed around (you know, Last time you cried, last movie you watched, do you like coke or pepsi etc.) and I've saved them. Hopefully if I get the chance to have correspondence with my DD (which probably wouldn't happen for a few years yet) I think it would be a cool, kind off ice breaker way to ask random questions and read eachothers responses.

Thank you - I printed this and will be using it. Actually, when my daughter was adopted they asked me for a box of things that were special and pictures and stuff - somehow this was thrown out or whatever. Either way, she never received it. It had beautiful 8x10's of us and me and her and her first christmas dress, etc. - all lost now.

Oh - by the way - the pic is of her! Isn't she beautiful!
