[quote=Anonymous]OP, that is wonderful.  We are adoptive parents and have an amazing relationship with our child's birth family in another country.  Skype is such a blessing and we talk weekly and I send pictures a few times a week.  We have all become very close and our child thinks its normal :).

Their culture is big on gifts.  They bring us a lot of jewelry (cheap), our son clothing (but I asked for specific cultural), scarves, gloves, and socks (keep warm as they come from a cold country).  I send a lot of clothing, especially for grandfather as it is expensive there, jewelry for an aunt, coffee for grandma.  Pictures are the biggest thing.  JCP and Target have groupon or living social, I forget which, which gives you 3 photos on a cd that you can then email with a high pixel so they can print as shipping is very costly (a small package for us is easily $70-100).  Ask them or post asking about Korean culture/gifts.  There is a huge Korean adoption culture and maybe you can find a specific message board on Korea.

I wish you the best and hope they are wonderful people and your adoptive family is loving and supportive.[/quote]
