A glimpse.

i'm giving you a peek.

into our photo book.

the one that hovered over my head for months and months.

you know the one.

the one that can determine who and when we may get our next child.

 

this book.

is all that a birth family sees for them to make a decision if they want to meet us, interview us, or PICK US!

 

that's it.

everything in this book has to represent us.

this book may be what leads us to our next child.

 

well I was really happy after 3 different reviews from our caseworker and some editing, that we got what we felt was best, what represented us, and what we felt we wanted a birth family to know.

 

we had a guideline and requirements to follow.

only so many pages, so many pics per page, and different things that we needed to include. all to help balance and represent us fully. And most pictures had to be recent. That can be difficult when you find that you mainly only take pictures of your kid. and not of yourself or as a whole family!

 

so here is just a glimpse:

 

cover. there is a vellum type material in the front.

cover.

 

our dear birthparent letter.

that was a hard one.

how do you thank someone you don't even know for the greatest gift ever?!

 

some oldies!

 

last page.

 

well there it is....

 

I hope that this represents who we are in a whole to a family.

and hopefully we will be picked SOON! :)

 

shoot... I would pick us.
