“When I got the call, I just couldn’t say ‘no’!”
Peter Mutabazi is no stranger to fostering kids. He’s fostered 16 over the last 4 years and adopted 1, his son Anthony. Having recently taken in a 17-year old, he wasn’t sure of what to think when he got the call for a 5 and 6 year old sibling pair who needed a home, but he moved into action.
“All I know for sure is that these kids need to know that someone thinks they matter, and as a dad, I love to let each of my kids know they belong.”
Watch as Peter prepares to welcome the new siblings (their reaction is absolutely priceless!)
