Jacob

Posted by Nick Edens (Toledo, United States) on 26 December 2007 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.

This little boy here is Jacob. He is the youngest child in the adoption home and is in the long process of being adopted to a very wonderful family here in the states. He doesn't talk much and overall the whole time I was there he was very mellow. You could always see him watching things and just soaking it all in. Most of the times when I would see him he would have is thumb in his mouth. This was one of the exceptions as I got him interested in this wooden car (he is holding it in the photo). Took a lot of photos of him at the request of his adopted parents so I really got to spend some time with him.

These children in the photos are in need of many things. If you are interested in helping or would just like more info please leave a comment to that effect and I will get back to you or email me at nedens @ gmail.com (be sure to remove the space before and after the @). Children in the free school can be sponsored for $25 a month which gets them 1 good meal a day (for some the only meal they will eat), a uniform, and school supplies. So as you all take a look at this series please consider helping.

I really appreciate everyones comments. They are a great encouragement to me. Thank you!
