  • In 2007, Ke'onte was just eight years old, News 8's Gloria Campos featured him as a Wednesday's Child in hopes of finding a family to adopt him.
    Following a failed adoption and disappointment, Gloria did another report on Ke'onte two years later, in hopes the second time would be the charm.
    Now 14, Ke'onte returned to WFAA to surprise Gloria Campos, live, during the Wednesday, March 4, 2014 News 8 at 10 broadcast.

    Gloria Campos should be recognized for her contributions to helping these foster kids find forever families. I want to adopt an older child and I will in the next few years, and it's because of stories like this.

    How could you start adoption proceedings and then change your mind? You're giving a child a home. If you're not ready then don't make a commitment in the first place. All a child wants is someone to love them and feel safe. How hard is that? I'm so happy for Ke'onte. He's finally home.
