Noah is the caregiver


Maelle has summarized the experience quite well in an earlier post in French.

Long trip, and as expected Cam Tu had little interest in us.   I am pretty sure this is the same reaction I would have if strange people came to take me away from my home.  In fact, she cried everytime I got close and did not want to be alone with either Maelle or I.  She only looked happy when hiding away from us with her caregivers, or the other kids in the orphanage.

Noah was able to have some success when he helped to feed her.

We will try another visit on Tuesday before the adoption ceremony on Wednesday.  This is definitely going to be different than the first time.   We are going to need every bit of the next 2-3 weeks to establish some kind of trust before we come home.
