A adopted boy from Sierra Leone has reacted emotionally to first birthday party with his new family.

A video shared on Pubity page on Instagram shows the young man from Sierra Leone emotinally celebrating his first big birthday celebration with his adoptive family.

The heartache in Sierra Leone as a result of political activities and corruption has been witnessed by the rest of the world for many years.

It is amazing to see the positive impact that love from family can have on a child without his family.

For the young boy, it isn’t just a birthday party celebration for him. It is so much more than that. It is a symbol of unconditional love, of acceptance, of pride, and of joy.

His reaction is also extremely heartwarming and shows that no matter what he has been through, his ability to love and accept love is still present.

That is a success in itself, considering that many children who fall into the system close themselves off to love as a form of protection.
