“K” has been waiting for too long and will turn 8 years old this summer.  He is loved by his caregivers plays well with other children and especially likes to help with the young ones. He is described as having a pleasant personality and is a quiet, smart, polite and bright child. He likes to learn and is fond of reading, drawing, listening to stories and playing with toy cars. He attends school where he is performing well, speaks in simple sentences, can identify his numbers and the names of his peers. His development is noted as being similar to his peers.
