They have had the children for almost a year. Shower items would be unnecessary. I am looking for something more meaningful but thanks.

Take the girls out and do an art project with them (pottery, painting, etc) and make it a group gift.

These were abused and neglected childen placed in foster care whose foster family is adopting them.
I like the family portrait idea or something along those lines.

I'm not sure how old the girls are, but some sort of jewelry that symobolizes family might be nice for them (and pricey )
Or perhaps a family tree type plaque... I'll have to google more.

Great idea. I actually make jewelry so mayhaps I should make them all something to symbolize their unity.

I love the idea of jewelry made with your own hands and own heart.
If you prefer to add something purchased to the gift, I suggest some local maple syrup.
