Christian has been through a lot since he entered foster care as a kid and has come a long way. He has been very busy getting his GED and working as the lead youth ambassador for his shelter. In this leadership role, he assists the shelter with outreach and development and mentors younger kids in the program. He and his girlfriend (also a foster youth) are expecting a baby in May. Christian is very excited to be a dad and has been working very hard to get ready for his baby. He goes to parenting classes every week and has been reading books about babies and parenthood nonstop since he found out she was coming! Christian and his girlfriend are ready to transition to their lives as new parents.

"Christian, Nothing in your life will ever compare to the moment you hold your child for the first time. I pray you and your girlfriend will always put this child first and remember that God has a plan for you and a purpose that is GREAT! Enjoy your baby monitor...I hope it gives you a little piece of mind at night so y'all can rest peacefully. God bless you! -Emily www.mc12.com "
