Zachary… “A Serious Little Guy”

This is our youngest child, Zachary. Today is his birthday. He just turned two, and believe it or not, he is in preschool (Haiti starts children early).

I tried my best to get him to smile. He is a sweet and kind little boy but he is always so serious!! I took many pictures but never could get him to smile! He is happy and sweet but he’s a serious little guy.

Zachary is the child of a woman who was bound by Voodoo. She came to our Jesus Healing Center after Zachary was born. Our doctor treated her but then, one of our nurses recognized the lady as having four or five children die, lost one little girl somewhere, and was afraid she would kill this baby.

When the nurses and I took his mother home, a neighbor came out crying, “get the baby out of here. She said she was going to kill him with a butcher knife!!” We called Social Services who told us to take the baby. We named him Zachary. We all love Zachary!! Maybe he’ll smile on his 3rd birthday!! We all love this kid!!
