Meet I | An Adorable Little Boy Who Loves Affection

March 15, 2016 by Staff Contributor

A picture of I smiling at the camera and playing a xylophone.“I,” born in 2012, is an adorable boy with a big smile. This little one, who currently waits in Eastern Europe,  loves playing with children and his favorite activity is swinging. He frequently plays with another boy in the home but is open to meeting new people. If he likes a new person, he will play with him/her with pleasure. He loves to be held and enjoys receiving affection from others. He also really enjoys watching cartoons and educational games. “I” is very attuned to his routines and anticipates what is coming next. He is known as a calm boy and is able to follow directions, communicate with adults, and walk independently.

There are many photos and additional information available to eligible families who inquire.
