He is 2 1/2 years old, although he is currently wearing 9-12 mo clothes. He weighed in Monday at only 7.1kg (15.5 pounds). But, he has grown a bit in the last two days! Pray with us for a little growth daily as we feed him fortified foods and as many calories as we can cram in him!
He is not yet walking and cannot stand on his own. His malnutrition has obviously been an ongoing problem. Here is Manuel compared to Dionisio...who is 3 weeks younger than him! A staggering difference...especially in height!
This little guy has stolen my heart already! He is full of smiles, laughter, and joy! Who wouldn't fall in love with that face???
Please join us in praying for his adjustment into the Baby House, good test results as we look into reasoning behind his malnutrition, growth daily, strength, and his little spirit to remain strong and joyful! We are entrusting yet another life into the the hands of our Lord...He is our provider! May He continue to heal our broken hearts over Graca while we watch yet another life blossom in His hands!
