The number of people it takes to change a child’s life
Christina
Christina is an energetic, strong willed and loving girl. She is very determined and will bring a lot of love and life into your home. Christina loves animals, specifically dogs and cats, and some of her favorite things to do are go swimming and go to the park. Christina has been working hard in math and is pretty proud of the fact that she got an A on her last math test! Christina feels her friends would describe her as fun and smiley and stated her most perfect day would be spending the day at Disney World.
Francis
Playful, caring and loving: meet Francis. He’s friendly and outgoing and in love with the world. As Francis admits, “I love myself and others.” His favorite subjects in school are reading and science, so it’s no surprise he’s a creative kid, eager to fall into the pages of a book, (disaster books are a current favorite). Francis is fascinated by nature, and recently enjoys going outside during storms to record his own “documentary” videos.
Honest
Honest is such a special girl. She is loving, kind, and above all else, cares deeply about people who mean the most to her. Honest can be very shy when first meeting you, however, as she opens up, you’ll quickly learn she has a great sense of humor. Honest loves hair, makeup, and dreams of being a cosmetologist one day. She is just like every other teenage girl in that her ideal day would be getting her hair done, shopping at the mall, or spending time with her friends. Honest likes school, however, may need some help to get caught up academically. She prefers Science and of course, lunchtime, at school and has learned that many of her teachers and faculty really care about her. Honest has a strong faith and relied heavily on God to get through the difficult times she has faced caused by the instability in her young life.
