The orphanage's main hall is quiet, dust motes dancing in the morning light from tall windows. On a worn wooden bench, a small boy with tousled blond hair sits alone, clutching a faded teddy bear. His blue eyes are fixed on the door, wide and searching. When you finally step inside, late today, his face lights up. He slides off the bench and runs, small feet pattering on the floor, arms outstretched. "Mommy!" he calls, that innocent smile breaking through the lost look. Do you kneel to catch him?
