A viewer like you could make a difference in a child's life. That's the goal of our special reports called ÒA Little Love.Ó And we are happy to report one of the children you met last year now has a forever family.

We first met Antonio last year on a trip to the lands at Hillside Farms in Shavertown. He got to go on a tour of the place, checking out the sheep and the donkeys.

He also got to cuddle with the barn cats and feed the chickens and visit some adorable little calves.

Hillside's owner thinks Antonio would make a great farmer, showing his gentle side with the animals.

And now at age 11 Antonio has a forever family. In late June it all became official. The adoption is complete and Antonio is giving and receiving the love he so deserves.

Other children hope to someday have forever families. Currently adoption experts in Pennsylvania are working with 300 children to find permanent homes.
