This blog is dedicated to little Carlos, our newest addition at Danita’s Children. Danita was contacted by another organization in Haiti to see if we would be willing to take Carlos into our home because he has special needs (after observing him, I believe he is a child with Autism.) He has been with us for about a month now, and I couldn’t be more blessed to have Carlos in my life. He is my little buddy, my little monkey, and God’s little special one…
