Finding a forever family is one of the most memorable events in a foster child’s life.
Meet Andrew
10-year-old Andrew was only six years old when his parents’ legal rights were terminated.
Left Alone
Andrew’s four siblings were adopted right away, and he was left alone to wait for someone to take him in permanently.
He Met The Gills
Andrew was 10 years old when he was fostered by Dominique and Kevin Gill from Nashville, Tennessee.
The Gills Family
Kevin and Dominique have three biological children, three boys, and a baby girl. Their child with whom Andrew got close the most is Joc.
Andrew Meets Joc
At first, Andrew and Joc behaved like total strangers until Joc took the first step and invited Andrew to play video games.
Their Common Denominator
Eventually, the two boys discovered that they had a lot of things in common. They both love Pop-Tarts and games like Minecraft.
The Big Decision
Kevin and Dominique saw the two boys’ bond and they didn’t want them to become apart when another family decides to adopt Andrew so they processed his adoption right away.
A Sweet Surprise
One day, as Molly Parker from Youth Villages foster system was taking Andrew for a walk, the Gills family invited his friends in the park to reveal that they’re finally taking him into their family.
