I was gone for four days traveling around the North of Nicaragua, and came back to my house where I spent the evening showing my parents pictures of people in my life at home. They then shared photos of their families and stories about their past. I gave my mom a hug on her birthday, but tonight she kissed me on the cheek before she went to sleep. My dad kisses me softly on the head most days when I am sitting at the table eating breakfast, but tonight he also kissed me on the cheek. They adopted me 2 months ago into their home, with no knowledge of who I was or what I was like. Now, 2 months later, with 2 more to go, I feel welcomed and apart of a home away from home.
