Hi, My name is Lauren Kingston and I am married to Damien Kingston.

Anyway, today we are meeting our baby! The mayor called and told us that there was a boy who had applied to be a little that is coming today so Damien and I got everything ready that we possibly could. The nursery is done and is a train theme, and our whole house has been baby-proofed. Damien unfortunately has work today so I'll be meeting our baby by myself. He should arrive soon.

Jesse's (baby) perspective.

I get in the taxi and ride to the address that the mayor gave me when she sent the letter accepting my application to be a baby in the ABC community. It stands for something but I forgot. I am a little nervous just because my last caregiver abused me so badly but I'm excited all the same. Soon I get within about 10 minutes of the office and my heart starts to pound.

"Am I making the right choice?" I think to myself

"Are they going to abuse me too?"

"No they wouldn't, they get screened."

"But still they could"

"I need to stop thinking about this and just see what happens" I say aloud to myself, stopping my thoughts from running wild. I take a few deep breaths and soon I arrive. I open the car door and take my seatbelt off. I step gently out of the car, shutting the door behind me and walk to the door. I pull on it and nothing happens.

"Huh?" I question before looking at the door and it says "push." I facepalm and open the door.

I walk over to the receptionist, who gives me a kind smile.

"Hi, welcome to the office for the ABC, how may I help you?" she asks.

"Hi, my name is Jesse Taylor and I received an email from the mayor saying that my application to be a little was accepted." I say, trying to calm my racing heart.

"Ah yes, welcome, I'll just have you fill out this form and then she will come and take you to your new caregivers." She says gently. I nod and she hands me the paper.

After I finished, I handed it back to the receptionist, who imputed my answers into the computer while I sat in one of the comfy chairs and waited. A few minutes later, the Mayor walked over to me and kneeled in front of me.

"Hi, my name is Julia and I am the mayor of the ABC. You have both a Mommy and a Daddy. However, only your Mommy is here right now as your Daddy is working, but you will meet him later." She explains before standing up and offering her hand to me.
