My v good friends have recently received their match certificate and soon they begin the process of meeting the children they are due to adopt.
I have always taken the stance of chatting to them when they want to talk and not mentioning it when i get the sense they dont want to talk about it (due to hard points they are had to go through etc) Basically, they have known this and have always got an ear for them or any support should they want it.
I have collected a few bits of things for them (toothpaste, flannels, soap and few items of clothing) and have given them to them as I have got them.
What other thoughtful things can I do? They are special people and are excellent with my own children and just want them to know how much we care.
Anyone with experience of adopting, what were the best things people did for you? tia
