Grown orphan Viviana starts family of her own
The beautiful new baby
On Monday, October 3, Viviana had her first baby. Vivi grew up at the Orphanage, arriving as a toddler. You can watch a short video about Viviana. Roy shares here about Vivi and Meño’s new baby.
Josue took photos of the baby through the glass and a couple of Vivi. Their baby girl was born by natural birth at 6:18 am. 2 Kilos 900 grams, 56 centimeters. They are still looking for a name for their child. Magdalena loaned Vivi her Bible that has a list of biblical names. Vivi wants to choose a name from the Bible. I believe they have up to a year to choose a name and officially register their child.
They returned to the pediatrician yesterday and he told them that the baby is doing fine. Of course Vivi is still hurting some from the birth.
Isela and Maria from our Orphanage come to help her as well as Meño’s sisters. Maria was there when I called her this morning. Meño is a teacher and has arranged to go to work late and return’s home early. So Vivi is receiving lots of care.
Lilia Espinoza and her sister Linda are planning what we would call a Baby Shower for Vivi. They are going to invite much of the community with the goal to provide everything that she needs for the baby. I brought her a very nice baby buggy that one of our neighbors had given to me.
Should any of you wish to write to her you can send an email to Brisa’s address, kgb2622@hotmail.com ,and she will print it out and take it to Vivi.
