Christine, 13 years old, MO

Christine is a sweet, loving girl with a heart of gold and a personality that shines! She is a true girly girl who loves all things pretty, dressing up, and expressing herself. After experiencing years of neglect and separation from her family, Christine found a safe and loving home with a close family friend who has given her the stability and support she desperately needed. When she first arrived, Christine was significantly behind in school, struggling with reading and many basic skills other children her age had already learned. With patience, encouragement, and lots of love, Christine has made incredible progress and grows more confident every day. One of the most exciting parts of her journey has been connecting with grandparents she never knew and even building relationships with two older siblings! She is discovering a whole new side of her family and creating special bonds she never had the chance to experience before. Christine has truly blossomed into a beautiful young soul who is learning just how loved, capable, and special she really is. Her journey hasn't been easy, but her future is looking brighter than ever!
