Remy, 9 months old, VA
Remy is just beginning life, but it has already been full of change. Remy entered foster care as a newborn, and the grown-ups who care for him know that the earliest days were uncertain. Since then, Remy has learned that a gentle voice means comfort, that a familiar face means safety, and that a warm lap is always waiting. Still, sudden noises make Remy startle, and new faces are studied with wide, careful eyes before a smile finally appears. Remy is learning to move through the world: pulling up on the couch, cruising along the coffee table, and lunging for anything that jingles, pops, or squeaks. Every button is worth pressing, every sound is worth repeating, and every grown-up is worth babbling at.
