3)  Sarah will help Marcia share how

 unlock their Life Stories.


4)  Question and Answer Time

How do you help children feel connected as they grow?

What are psychological needs of adopted children
as they go through changes in life?

Are adopted children aware 
of all they went through prior to adoption?

What about attachment?

JOURNEY JEWELRY is a

of their child's life.
