Here is some never before posted footage of our first morning with Rita. This was about an hour after we met - the first time we took out the cameras. We had just met with the social worker and children's home director to learn Rita's story; and then Rita was examined by Dr. L. Then they left us to get to know each other better.

(I am still learning how to edit and post video so the quality is really poor. And the music - well - I was feeling pretty nostalgic when I put this together last night at 1AM.)

First afternoon family photo.

Family photo taken today - one year later.
