This week has been great. Emma is adjusting and doing so well. I had 7 cameras developed from our foster family. I just got them back and wanted to post some of her pictures. They had given me a round one of pictures when I visited in June so these pictures are June to December.
The people in the pictures are the ones who have made our daughter's transition so easy. Being a counselor, I know how important it is for a child to develop trust and attachment early in life. These early months set the stage for the child's development. If the child is well cared for, loved and engaged right from birth, the child will have the best possible chance. You can see how well taken care of, how loved she was by her ENTIRE family and how happy Emma was with her first family. We couldn't have asked for a better first family for Emma. Their love for her is amazing.
There were no words that we could say to Astrid and Christian to adequately express our deep appreication and love for them. We feel they are a part of our family and we want Emma to know as much as about them and her first months of life as possible. I was so excited to look through this pictures and see Emma's smiles and love in her eyes for them...and to also see their love for her.

what a beautiful beginning emma had with her foster family, and what a gift that you are open to her knowing about them and knowing them.
Our girl has grown!! I love seeing that smiling face. Its great to see what a loving home she had with her foster family. Emma will surely be thankful one day to look back on her beginning days with such a loving home.
Amy, the pics are just adorable, and Emma will have these when she grows up and can see how much she is loved and that is wonderful!!!
