Meet Timothy

Timothy is a sweet little boy waiting to be matched with a forever family. We had the privilege of spending time with him while on our mission trip to Ethiopia. Timothy is very affectionate and came up and laid his precious head in my lap. He would love a family who could love on him and give him the special attention he needs and deserves. Timothy hums songs a lot as he navigates through his day. He also loves swinging on the playset and playing on the slide. During our time at the transition home, we also had the opportunity to do music class with some of the kids, and Timothy came alive during the instrument and singing portion. He especially liked the rhythm sticks!

Timothy usually expresses himself through body gestures. He is very neat and organized, and is able to feed himself properly using silverware. Timothy has special medical needs. Won’t you help us be part of his story? Please share this post with others so we can help find Timothy a forever home.

Meet Devon

My time in Ethiopia was full of many blessings, one of which was the opportunity to meet Devon. Devon is two years old and a joy to be with. Devon lights up with the most precious smile when he hears singing or a rhythmic beat such as clapping. Devon enjoys being held and being sung to. I enjoyed my time sitting and playing with Devon and getting to see his sweet smile. Devon is in need of a home with a family that will love him and give him the care that he needs.

Meet Freddie

I had the amazing privilege of hanging out with Freddie during our time in Ethiopia. Freddie has the biggest smile! There is so much joy in his smile, that you can’t help but be warmed by it. He has big beautiful eyes that are so expressive. Freddie loves music and laughing. He is super ticklish and when you hear him laugh, it makes everyone around laugh with him.

One of his nannies told me that his name means “love” and I can’t imagine a more perfect description for him. Freddie is abounding in love and joy and needs a forever family to share it all with. This little guy is so full of life and would thrive in a home that could give him the care and attention he deserves. He truly was a blessing to me. Would you share his story and help him find the perfect home?
