As I continue to read about Trans-racial adoption I am struck by just how much thought needs to go into being their family. As a mom I think about T's sensitivity, activeness, and love for people. For D I think of his need to explain himself, be heard, and attention to family. With this new baby there will be the need to focus on attachment, answering questions, and keeping as much of their culture as possible. I am excited to meet that challenge!!!
Off to write a "Dear Birthparent" letter... wish us luck. :0)
