Freddie has been in foster care for the past ten years. He's been through a lot. He appears smaller than his age due to being born with fetal alcohol syndrome. Now, at age 12, Freddie has been placed with a permanent family, with the love an support he needs for life. Freddie is part of a loving family in Coushatta, Louisiana that has adopted six children. His mom, Marie, is so happy to have Freddie as part of their family, " It makes me feel good. Freddie makes everybody feel good cause he's a great little boy to be around." Freddie loves the way his new mom takes care of him. "She takes care of me and stuff and if I fall down, she puts a bandaid on or something like that."
