An update posted by the family showed a photo of Noah in a car, with text expressing gratitude for those who've stepped in and helped. 

"We are overjoyed that our sweet Noah is on his way to his new home. He still has a ways to go. But the outlook is great," the post said in part. "We shall never completely heal from the loss of his family and ours. But God blessed us with a five-year-old that will never allow us to slow down or wallow in our sadness."
