The other day we found out some very excited news for sweet Silas!
No, he doesn't have a family yet, even though he REALLY needs one. But now he has a much better chance at finding a family!
Do you know why? Because he's not turning 8 this year, like we thought, he's actually only turning 5!! He was born in 2007, not 2004!
And because we have his correct birthdate now, we were able to find new (to us) pictures of him!!
These pictures were taken in April 2011. Isn't he precious????
However, even though Silas has not been transferred yet, he will be in the next year. The baby house he is still in, is a really nice place as far as orphanages go. But the institution he will go to might not be so nice.
PLEASE, he needs to be RESCUED before it's too late. Right, now before he is transferred would be a wonderful time to bring him home, so he never has to know the horrors of the institution.
I've blogged about it before, but there is also a giveaway for Silas going on right now that I helped put together, to help raise his ransom. He only has $184 in his grant right now. And there is still much more to raise.
There are many awesome prizes that you can win. And right now, since the ratio of prizes to donors is 12:2, you have a pretty good chance to win something!! (Some of the electronic prizes will not be given away until a certain amount is raised, and there is a separate prize for those who shared the giveaway.)
