o4: from heartbreak to heart warming.
So, yes. Ashton and I flew to Argentina to see about him adopting a little girl. I hate to fly. It scares the poo out of me, but I guess that was something that I had failed to mention to him until we got to the airport and I started visibly getting nervous. He was wonderful though... he kissed me as we were taking off so that I wasn't thinking about it. It worked, he was the only thing on my mind.
When we got there, I went into the orphanage first because he was afraid of what he might see in there. I must tell you, the conditions were heartbreaking. Some of the children couldn't even muster up smiles. It was clean, but very hot in there. I met Alia before he did and knew that he was going to fall in love with her the moment he saw her, and he did. She allowed him to pick her up and it was quite possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. They have been virtually inseparable ever since.
Twice now he has brought her in while I was sleeping and she's crawled across the bed and just curled up around me. My heart is slowly becoming hers and I don't think there is anything I could do to stop it. I just hope that she is able to fully adjust to her new life and has a happy childhood. Although, with a dad like Ashton... I'm not sure she could do any less. He has already planned many shopping trips and Spongebob marathons. He's so adorable... my heart is slowly becoming his also.
