I waited as I watched the clouds grow darker and meaner by the minute. I never knew how hard it could be to be all alone. I wanted to lay there without a care in the world and with parents of my own, but I knew that couldn't happen. I was one of many kids who's parents died or abandon them to the orphanage. It was never that bad but always lonely and bitter. We always had a chance to get adopted every week, but I was never one of the lucky ones. I hope and prayed every day to get adopted, but I always ran out of hope at the end of the day. I wanted to give up, but I always found some way of staying happy. I only wish I could keep that happiness with me until I die. " If only "I repeated to myself. As the darkness grew outside I thought more and more about how I was ever going to get a family. I thought a lot on the subject and always paced back and forth just thinking about it.
My name is Katie, just Katie. When I paced most of the kids wonder what I think about since they usually have more hope than I have. I am a little bit brighter than most kids here since we never go to school. I try to teach myself how to read and write, but I usually end up as baffle as any other person trying to learn new things. I know it's hard, but I still try to push myself into learning I don't really have anything else to do, I mean we stay inside to watch T.V. or read.
The housekeepers here are very mean and cheap. They never let us go outside or eat candy.
