So wonderful of you to bring this precious, lost baby girl into your family...You are obviously loving, caring, compassionate and generous. For now, just keep loving her and continue to be patient--very patient--as it may take time. I totally agree with everything Matese suggests (always, actually) and avoiding going near your husband while she's bonding is excellent advice. We all come with baggage; your little girl has been through some terrible hardship and needs for you to understand that even though you don't know what 'that' is...Already she is trusting you and your wonderful husband to figure out what she cannot. She needs to believe what I told Piper time and time again after bringing her home..."You are home now and we will be together always. I will keep you safe. You have a voice in our home, a say in your life. I love you and will always love you and there is nothing, nothing you can do that will ever change that..." |
