her name is kaitlin, with a "k"

[iniquitous1]

she was a petite little thing, seven going on seventy with skin the color of milk with a dab of strawberry jam stirred in it. her hair was baby fine, like silk thread the color of roasted almonds. she and her surrogate foster mom stopped by my parents' house the day after thanksgiving. that was the first time i had ever seen a white child within

You are beautiful and so is she.

thanks megan...

she really was a beautiful child. i just wish she could be in a household were folks valued her more. i'm still pissed about them not taking her on the trip with them. i wish i could just kick both parents in the ass.

That was one heart-warming story. I even learned something from it. Thanks for sharing, Nikki.
