The last LO for the spotlight. Thanks for all the fun
This is about the day I met my son for the first time; he's adopted and this is one of my first photo of him.
journal:
I woke early, so excited about the day. A cab came and got me at 8:30 am; the cabdriver was a good man - we became friends during our many drives around the city.
And then we were at the gate to the home. Would I recognize him from the photos I got two months earlier? Would he recognize me from the photos I sent him a few weeks earlier? Would he cry or smile, be shy or straightforward? So many thoughts rushed through me - but when I got there and saw him right there in front of me, only seconds later, I was only happy. He was my son, that I knew. With his big brown eyes, shy approach - and big smile (when he got to see himself on the screen of my digital camera).
I was with him most of the day, it was so nice. Good to see him warming up to me slowly. Funny to watch him play with the others. Great to see his skills with the ball and how found he was of the little car toy he got from me.
