Attachment for Ella

When we bring Ella home it will be a big adjustment for all of us. We will be meeting our daughter for the first time, but she will not understand what is going on. Her first 6 months of life will have been in different homes and orphanages, she has bonded with many of her nannies and caregivers, but it is now time to bond with her parents. All of the experts suggest that we stay with Ella at all times, only leaving her for short periods of work within the first 6 months of her life (with us). She will need stability and this involves constant attention from her parents. Charles will be going back to work and I will try and drive to Sarasota for lunches in order for him to spend time wih Ella and so she can feel safe that he is still here and hasn't left her. The first 6 months are particularly important in her life. We are upset that we cannot attend my brother-in-laws wedding in Mexico, we really want to go, but Ella's health is the most important thing right now. If we are hesitant to do things as soon as we get Ella, I hope that everyone can understand and be patient. We are new parents that want the best for our little girl.
