More Haiti Pictures


While in Haiti, they were able to take some of the kids who had been adopted to Florida to meet their families. They were all put into this C-17 for the trip to the states.

These are a bunch of babies who all just take their naps together on blankets.

This little Girls name was Stefani, and my dad got really close to her and her brother.

These kids all patiently wait to get food to bring home to their families.
I'm kind of jealous of my super-hero dad! I want to help those amazing kids too.

My Dad: The Super Hero!

We were obviously devastated when we heard about the earthquake in Haiti. I think everyone wished they could do something immediatly to help out and make a difference. My dad recently got a new job. He is the Director of the WADE Family Foundation (which is a new foundation, so he is basically starting it). The Foundation is based on service and helping others. On the morning two days after the earthquake, my dad said that the foundation was going to get involved with Haiti and possibly go to Haiti to actually help there. After a crazy week, of things being cancelled, and then going through, Dad left for Haiti the Thursday after the earthquake. He definately had some crazy, dangerous, life-changing, and incredible experiences. Here are just a couple pictures from his trip:


This is a picture of a hospital in Haiti that used to be seven stories (if you can believe that) but was completely pancaked.



This is one of the little baby boys that my dad fell in love with. His name was Fransou.



Isn't she Adorable?




This is the first of two orphanages that my dad went to. When the kids saw my dad, they would all cling to him and say, "Papa?". He would say to them his name was Monty. They would then ask, "Papa Monty?" It makes me want to just give them all a huge hug.
