    some people print up adoption bulletins (such as beginning bulletins) making it reliable to friends and family contributors, giving the baby's reliable call, perchance a poem about what on the present time potential on your family contributors. you'll discover examples on line on adoption web pages and such. also make sure you practice a lifebook (in case you have not already) that shows her existence before the adoption. i'd advise putting mutually 2 variations--one it truly is truly only a image album that you'll be able to view including her even as she's little and contains images from her adoption day, even as the different provides assistance about why she became followed and about her family contributors and historic past (as a lot as you recognize) that ought to no longer be ideal for her to confirm as a youthful baby, yet that ought to offer her assistance which will answer questions even as she is older, that ought to truly help her extra perfect comprehend her personal historic past.

    Perhaps something monogrammed with her new initials for the little girl, and you can choose whether to include the date the adoption is official or not.

    For the parents, how about a nice picture frame?

    I wouldn't place much emphasis on the adoption.

    I think you should get her the same gift as if the child wasn't adopted.

    A few bags of baby diapers will ALWAYS be appreciated.

    Unless the child is too old for diapers. In that case, maybe a new outfit.

    a Beautiful scrap book would be very nice as would a Photo album.

    I think a teddy bear for the girl would be nice.

    because they are your employers, i would just give a beautiful card and write a heartfelt comment about how excited you are for them.

    that's really sweet! Perhaps a photo album with their last name (or intial) on it (I think 'Things Remembered" might carry these...they're in most malls)
