Seeing her for the first time
After court the arrange us a visitation with the baby. I was very excited, I couldn't wait. We went to the CPS office with the baby's parents and while we were waiting for the Foster mom to show up with the baby, the social worker did a little interview to me and asked the baby's parents to give me some information about the baby. About 20 minutes later, Foster mom showed up with the baby. OMG! When I saw her, It was the best feeling ever. She seemed happy, healthy and full of energy. So little, so innocent. The first thing I did was hug her. I couldn't believe it was finally happening, she was in front of me and it was a hundred time better than I was expecting. I went on the floor to play with her. She is so curious, I noticed how she likes to open stuff, if something had a lid, she wanted to open it. She went a few times to her baby bag and kept getting stuff out. She found some lotion and she prefer that lotion over any other toy in the room. She also liked a book, she passed the pages and looked at the pictures several times. She danced, she smiled and she make doggie sounds. I swear I was in La la land, she is perfect. I got to spend an hour with her and her parents. That day the air conditioning wasn't working and it was very hot in that little room. At the time of saying good bye the baby's dad gave her to me and I gave her a kiss and a big hug and I told her how much her uncle and I love her. When foster mom came to get her she seemed happy to go with her, on the way out she waved at us good bye. I swear I am never going to forget that. I get all teary eyed when I think about it....
