The Contents of Amelia's Care Package: Soft blankie that we slept with every night for the past week (after using her Aveeno Baby body wash--this is an attachment technique--she'll get used to the scent in a familiar setting, then we'll use that same scented body wash on her and on ourselves once we get her. It presents a subtle hint to her brain....hey, we must belong together--they smell familiar!) ; a disposable camara with the request that the nannies take pictures of her in the orphanage and return to us on gotcha day; hershey kisses for the nannies; an outfit and sweater (purchased by grandma several months ago); musical keys (from secret pal); soft stuffed kitty cuddly (from our friend, Lisa) and the "who loves baby" photo album, with Mommy and Daddy on every page.

Precious! When do you think you'll see her?
You will sooo enjoy getting the album and the camera back. Everyone remarks on how wonderful it is to see that these precious gifts actually do GO to the child and DO come home with you.
Hugs!
