One of the ideas I have for making a template is for a lifebook for foster or adoptive children.

Are their any foster /adoptive parents on the board?

I am actually the "adoptee" I was adopted at birth and until last month we had no information about my birth family. well, they found me and they want to know everything!! I thought this scrapbook idea would be easy but as it turns out trying to capture your life experiance and essance is hard and the scrapbook end is even harder!

I think that would be great to have something alone the lines of adoption. I have a lot of pictures of my son's birth, his birth mom, and us (adoptive parents).

My DH and I adopted a 2 year old from Kazakhstan. We have been home a little over a month. I am using the digital scrapbook to help me create his lifebook.
There are some websites that are made up of adoptive parents creating lifebooks. It is highly recommended by professionals.
