All our children here at Love A Child “work” and do chores, but some of them work, “just to be working!” Mikael is a good example. Mikael “looks for work!” He is one of the teenage boys that are always “looking for work.” When he is at home, he usually goes to the Food Distribution Center and starts sweeping, cleaning, and making sure all the boxes are straight!!! You never have to ask him to work! When a big container comes in, he is right there, ready to unload and put things on pallets. He is honest and sweet, and tender-hearted. If he thinks you are angry at him, he will be very sad or even cry.

Mikael came to us when his mother died. His father was very poor and could not take care of him. (This happens a lot, here in Haiti.) His father brought him to us and we found out that he was a really intelligent child! He loves music and plays the drums in our Children’s Service each night. He is in Junior High now and one day, he will figure out what he wants to do in life! We love Mikael… never had a problem with him!!! Sherry
