Match Meeting - 5/19/07

Today I met Victoria for the first time. I met the social worker Dorette outside of Victoria's home in Somerville - only a mile and a half from my home in Cambridge. Everyone said Victoria might be shy at first but I think she was shy for about a second. I met her mom Diedre, her little brother Keayon and her Uncle Derek. We hung out in the living room, went over the match contract and signed it. Then Victoria showed me her room, told me about her friends, what she likes to do. She introduced me to her bear who she named (prior to even knowing I existed) Julia! She made the bear a really cute off the shoulder dress!

The whole meeting was about an hour. We made an appt to meet again next Saturday, same time, 11am. Victoria loves animals, so I said I would find some animals or horses we could go see.
