Wilguens… One of a Kind

Of all the children we have, Wilguens (Jacque) is the “different one.” He is very intelligent, quiet, and you never know he is around… but if you need him, he “appears!” He is about 9, going on 60! He is the brother of Fabiola.

Wilguens’ mother died (probably in childbirth), and his father could not take care of him and his sister. Sometimes, his father would leave the children for several days with nothing to eat. Both children became malnourished. His father decided it was best to give the children up, so he took them to Social Services and they brought Wilguens and his sister to us. Both children responded to healthcare and love very rapidly.

Wilguens is the “quiet one” (at least, I think he is!). He is very, very intelligent in school, yet, he has the character of an older man… kids call him “Grandpa!” He wants to be a mechanic!! He will be in 6th grade!! He is super sweet and super smart!!! I wouldn’t mind having another couple of “Wilguens’!” Or, maybe not! It’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for! We all love “Grandpa!”
