Tessa Joy
Birthdate: March 25, 2012
Tessa Joy was born March 25, 2012 with a severe congenital heart defect. She was abandoned at the local clinic June 22, 2012. The police were called but could not locate her parents and she was taken to the local orphanage. Tessa Joy is a beautiful little girl with big eyes. She is very curious and does not like to miss out on anything that is going on. Tessa Joy loves to laugh and smile and talk to anyone who is interacting with her and has a strong grip despite being weak, due to her heart condition. Tessa Joy arrived at New Day Foster Home October 17, 2012 and we look forward to seeing the difference that heart surgery makes in her life, and the difference that love makes in her heart.
