 Nikita (3)
Boy, Born February 4, 2008
So wish we had a more current pic of Nikita, but he is a darling little boy and is doing well. His records do not indicate a heart condition. He likes to play with toys and is interactive with his caregivers. The "cloud" on his eye in this picture is NOT an indication of blindess....I tried to edit his red eyes and this is how it came out!

Girl, Born June 26, 2008
Anna does have a heart defect (a VSD and ASD) but is doing well! She has blonde hair and blue eyes, and is such a cutie! Great personality, very affectionate and playful.

These children are immediately transferred at 4, and have little chance of survival where they are sent. All of our waiting children need families, but these have a critical need. Please consider one of these children soon!!

The children in this orphanage are VERY well taken care of. They are blessed by the financial and humanitarian support of a very large aid group, meaning adequate food, stimulation, toys, and even therapeutic items. They are all being raised with the typical children, so this helps them be even more high functioning. Even more so, they are shared with us by a loving director who genuinely wants to see these angels find families. We are honored to be able to seek families for these children, and hope we can succeed in placing ALL of them very quickly!
