Grace is a bright, bubbly preteen with a big personality and an even bigger heart! She loves being active and creative—whether she’s making arts and crafts, dancing around the living room, or playing with her Barbies, Grace always finds a way to make life fun. On sunny days, you might spot her swimming or spiking a volleyball with friends. And when it comes to food, she has her favorites: Buffalo Wild Wings is her go-to spot for spicy wings, and at snack time she can’t resist a Cookies & Cream Hershey bar with a glass of chocolate milk. Music is another one of her passions, especially Hip Hop and R&B. Justin Bieber, Meghan Trainor, and Chris Brown are among her favorites, and she loves singing along to their songs.

School is a highlight for Grace—not just because of the learning, but because she gets to spend time with her friends. Science is her favorite subject, and she’s especially excited when experiments are involved. Grace dreams of becoming an animal rescuer one day. Her love for animals shines through in everything she does, and she enjoys volunteering at the local animal shelter to spend time with them and learn how to care for them properly.

Grace is searching for a forever family who can provide her with a structured, nurturing, and trauma-informed home. She would thrive with both a mom and dad and would do best as the only or youngest child. While she sometimes gets a little overenthusiastic with pets, she would absolutely love to have a dog to call her own—especially with gentle guidance to help her learn. Most of all, Grace hopes for a family who will love her unconditionally and encourage her as she grows, helping her reach her full potential and follow her dreams.
