Elijah is in 4th grade and lives with his father, step-mother, and three sisters. Though the beginning of his life was tough for him, he is resilient and working towards learning to not let his past impact his future. He has a great sense of humor, loves science class, and likes being outside. He is protective of his sisters and is happy to finally be in a home where he feels loved but the fear of going back to foster care is always present.
