We had our first Bridge Builder class on Saturday June 21st. It went well and we learned a lot of great information. These are the topics we covered,
Becoming an Adoptive Parent of Children with Extra Needs
Lifelong Issues in Adoption
Special Needs Child Development
Creating Positive Attachments # 1
We also learned about all of the amazing resources that we have available to us through the county as far as kids camps and therapists and family counseling etc. It is all provided for us since we are adopting through the County.
Here is a link (for those of you adopting) to some really great books. http://www.tapestrybooks.com/Default.asp?c=222622
Here is a book that is recommended for EVERY Parent. (Parenting with Love and Logic)

Thanks so much for sharing your journey! We are following the same process in Alabama. We should be done with everything on our part by the end of July. It is so helpful to read about others pursuing the same dream. Thanks for the link to the tapestry website. I have already ordered some books! I will continue to keep up with your story and will keep your family in my prayers.
