Alaesha
Alaesha, a beautiful and charming 12-year-old with an engaging
smile and warm personality, has some special needs. She is
diagnosed with cerebral palsy, but it does not impact her
cognitively and does not stop her from being sweet, sensitive,
talkative and inquisitive. Thoughtful and sensitive to the
needs of others, she is affectionate and loves to give and
receive hugs. Alaesha also loves school and like any girl
her age, she likes music, school dances and spending time
with her friends.
Because of Alaesha's special needs, she requires the use of a wheelchair for mobility but she is working on using a walker and making great progress. Alaesha visits extended family members in the local area. She is in need of a loving adoptive family that will assist her in maintaining family member connections and reaching her full potential.
Keith & Eric
Keith and Eric are five-year-old twin brothers, active boys
who love to play outdoors and go to the park. They are friendly,
charming and enjoy interacting with others. Both boys love
to express themselves and relish telling stories about their
daily activities. They also enjoy watching television, particularly
cartoons. Their favorite shows are "Jimmy Neutron" and "Spiderman."
The
brothers have both attended preschool and will be starting
kindergarten shortly. They have some mild developmental delays
and are receiving therapeutic services. The boys are both
healthy but have asthma, which is currently stable. They need
an adoptive family who understands the need to keep this sibling
set intact --- a special family with a lot of energy and love
who can provide lots of structure for the boys.
