Day 5 – Where I meet my Mama

December 7 – Today I met my mama. The people from the orphanage brought me into her hotel room. She was standing in front of the window waiting for me. She smiled at me a held me in her arms. After the people who brought me left, mama put me on the bed to take look at me. I was dressed in two layers of clothes; orange and white pajamas and a quilted red outfit.




Mama told me that I smelled good and then she kissed me. All I wanted to do was play with my stacking cups. After a while mama gave me a small bottle of water that I could carry around. She was very surprised to see how well I walked around. I even climbed into the crib that was in the room.

Then we went upstairs to visit Jenny and her family. Jenny and I came from the same orphanage. She is younger than me and doesn’t yet walk. She does pull herself up and I had a good time watching her.

My first day with my mom was pretty good…I didn’t cry too much; only right before I took a nap. I did fall asleep on the floor in Jenny’s room.
