New baby and Yasin on family visit

Today we were contacted by a nurse from the maternity ward at the local hospital, who had a newborn baby who lost his mother during labor. Baby Jacob was left with his five siblings, the oldest 19 years now faced with the responsibility for her younger siblings at 13, 10, 6 and 2 years. This amazing big sister has love and care for her siblings, but it's too overwhelming for her to have to take care of a newborn baby, so the agreement was that Jacob had to be placed at our baby home and the big sister will try to keep in touch with him.

Isn't he cute?

Gavin drove to the school Cornerstone where Kathrine and Emeli were to give a first aid course to the older students.

Brenda and Melisa had Yasin along to Cornerstone so he could visit his family. Yasin did not get much out of the visit, but his mother and his older brother were very surprised to see that Yasin was doing so well. Yasins Mother continued to give thanks for all that has been done for her son. She was very happy and grateful. When the neighbors heard that Yasin had come over they did not believe their eyes when they saw him, they did not expect that he would survive. Yasin is definitely a true miracle.

Yasins mother gives him some jackfruit and really tried to establish a contact with him, but he could not remember his family ...

Here is the family: Yasins big brother in the blue pants, Yasins little sister in the pink jersey with sleeves and Yasin on the arm of his mother (I do not think the girl in the string t-shirt is from the family, but I'm not quite sure!)
