Kiran Uncle, My Hero

I wish that I had half the heart of Kiran.

The boys all live in houses with a family that takes care of them. Kiran and his wife Ruth have been here for around 10 years. They have a son and a daughter on top of the 12 boys. I love my boys, but they can be naughty at times and we are only with them for short periods of time and then we are able to find peace in our own house. Kiran and his wife are amazing with the boys. He is so kind to them and is always encouraging them. They are with them 24/7. The other weekend we were on duty to watch them. We had Monday off, but they still asked us to watch them for the night. My heart was not right and I was upset because we really were not planning on having to watch them.

At 9:00 when we where putting the boys to bed we saw headlights, very rare since there are not many cars on the farm, in comes Kiran and his family from their night out. We hear all the boys, that we just put to sleep making all this noise. We came out and Kiran was shining like a light bulb. I thought that he bought a new car. But, actually he bought a game for the boys and he was so excited that they liked it. I have never seen someone so happy for giving a gift to someone else. The boys are so blessed to have him as their house parents and I am blessed to be around them. They are amazing and the most selfless couple that I have ever met.
