Mama has a good memory an as much as I wanted her ta ferget bout that Smallpox shot she didn't. She finded a nurse in town, Miss Kat, who was able ta do it. I was sooo scared it took a long time afore I would let Mama put me down on the docs table. When I finally letted her put me down I started ta cry an couldn't stop. Miss Kat was tryin ta be real nice but it wasn't workin. Mama holded my hand an was talkin ta me but the tears keeped on comin an I wouldn't even look at Miss Kat.
It seemed like it taked a year ta be done even though Miss Kat telled me it would be over by the time I counted ta ten... an I think it was. I'm really glad ta be done with that an hope I dun need another shot ever in my life.
After the shot we went over ta Miss Sarah's studio an then ta the courthouse. We waited there fer a long time an the judge dun show up so we went back ta Miss Sarah's studio fer stories. Miss Sarah telled us a real nice story bout a guy that worked on a railroad an was kina a hero. I tried ta pay tention ta the story, but honestly I was kina worried that I wasn't gonna get dopted an was feelin sad. But... after storytime we went back over ta the courthouse an Mister Mayor Adrian was there an ready ta do the doption!
Miss Sarah an Lily an Miss Sheriff Sarrah an some other folks was all there an we listened ta Mister Mayor Adrian talk an ask me stuff:
