These playful brothers are waiting in Asia for a loving, adoptive home.
K, the 10 year old, is enrolled in second grade and known as a playful, clever boy who learns quickly. He is learning basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, reading and telling time. He enjoys eating snacks and seafood. K likes to spend his time outside playing various sports, skipping rope or running. His favorite activities include playing with remote-controlled toys or video games. He has good self-care skills and gets along well with other children. He likes to hang out with his brother and another boy in the orphanage and will often be found leading the group.

X, the 8 year old, is playful but is known to be stubborn at times. Though he avoids candy because he is afraid of tooth decay, he enjoys fruit, sausage, corn and seafood. X takes his own initiative to help with chores and has good self-care skills. He is enrolled in preschool and learning basic math problems, colors and shapes. He likes to help the teachers pass out snacks and cake. He enjoys reading cartoon books and even completing his homework. Just like his brother, X likes to be outside playing in the park—running and skipping rope—or playing video games.
These brothers have been in care for four years. Prior to that, they were raised by their grandparents. They have a blood condition that is managed through daily medication but have no other health concerns.
