Growing Up, Together
Helping Siblings Heal When Caleb and Lily came to us, they clung to one another during every waking moment. He cried whenever she left his sight.

And Lily began to learn what it meant to be a sister rather than his primary caregiver, the role she had filled since his birth.

Three years later, the change is easy to see. Caleb is one of our most active little boys. His laughter is frequently heard across campus. Lily has made new friends but still watches out for him. They hold on to one another, now out of love, not fear.
