"In the future ... of Keaton"
This is the story of 16 children who are each unique and in search of their one true family. You may be blessed with children of your own, by birth or marriage or chance. This is Keaton's chance to shine and look for one of his own...
Keaton is going to be 6 years old in just a few months and is at a cross roads. His life could go down one of two paths and it is up to us to decide his future. Yes, just like on American Idol you can VOTE and make a difference with just a click of your phone or facebook or email. You can choose to forward his story and picture to your friends and they can forward it to their friends until he has so many people rooting for him that he becomes a "winner". The prize? A family of his own!
What do I think his life could be like with a loving family, proper nutrition, medical care and education?
I see Keaton as a Rock Star. I can picture him as a child, jambing out on the game Rock Band. As a teenager, I see him learning to play an instrument, maybe an electric guitar or the drums. School gives him the opportunity to play in concert bands and in competitions, then on the weekend, he can be found jamming to the beat with his buddies in the garage. The neighbors can feel the music as they go about their yard work with a smile on their face, enjoying the serenade. I picture Keaton with his hair teased and styled with gel, maybe with some highlights of black or red to set him apart from the crowd. As the band gets better, they start to play at some near by events; a coffee house or restaurant and become local favorites. The next stop? What does a music lover do? Why, he plays music of course? For his own pleasure, for family and friends .. because it goes all the way to his soul. What type of music could you introduce him to to grab his interest and broaden his mind? Mozart? Bach? Christian Rock? the Blues? Jazz? Country? Wow, so many many genres in just this one small bit of interest. What else could his eyes be opened to? What other interests could he develop and pursue? No one will know until they take a chance and allow him to develop into all of his what-ifs and could-bes and do-be-doos.
Rock on Keaton!
