Free Day for our Family

Chelsie’s orphanage is about 6 hours from our hotel location and therefore we did not have the opportunity to visit the place where she has spent her first 20 months.  Therefore we had a free day to get to know each other since our other companion families used this day to visit their children’s orphanages.  We learned a lot more about the personality of the child that we now claim as our own.  She really has a “Great Laugh”.  Also she likes to play with her Daddy.  We saw the first signs of initiated contact by her.  It came quite out of nowhere when she decided to come and tap her daddy on the foot to make sure that he knew she was there.  Then she did it a few times after that and we were able to get her on video playing with him.  That was just the beginning of the joy that we shared that day.   She really loves her Mommy, especially when it is time for food.  

Unfortunately, we have been delayed in getting more information on the blog due to our converter taking a hit when the flat iron was plugged into the device.  We are working on battery power, but hope to have some more days soon.  MORE TO COME…
