Eddie is a bright, lively boy who loves playing basketball, going to the playground, and reading books. He is very intelligent for his age and often asks thoughtful questions and shares ideas that surprise the adults around him. He also enjoys building things and teaching his younger brother. Eddie and his brother entered foster care after the unexpected passing of their mother. With no father in the picture, they are now being cared for by a close family friend who is doing her best to meet their needs while keeping the brothers together.
