A police officer showed up at our gate with a tiny newborn baby. The sweet, tiny little bundle was found on the highway in Kitengela, laying in a plastic bag. The police were alerted to his whereabouts, found him, and took him to the local clinic for a brief, general check. He was then taken to the District Childrens Office who then referred him to our home. He came to us as a fresh, brand new newborn, still not properly washed from his birth. It was obvious he was not even a full day old.
Joseph is in great health, though we are not yet sure of his HIV status. He is precious little boy who is quite a cuddler! His pictures just do not do him justice! Everyone who sees him seems to be surprised that he is the same one in the pictures. He still sleeps a lot, but is beginning to have a few more hours of being awake in the daytime. We love having Joseph in our home!
