We were talking about the attachment period in infancy and how recent research has shown that the first 6 months of life are critical in the attachment period. I have been wondering lately, as seeing the development and attachment with Logan, how being adopted has affected my life. I wasn't brought home to my parents until I was 2 months old. That is 2 months of the critical period. I know I was really thinking this when Logan was that age, but just blew it off because I didn't want to think about it.
