Cormac has been in foster care for two years and keeps a weather journal each morning, noting cloud shapes, wind direction, and afternoon predictions. He has lived in three homes and prefers to observe and listen before warming up to new people, surprising them with his dry humor and insightful questions in class. Dreaming of becoming a meteorologist, Cormac is steady and thoughtful, eager to help others prepare for changes, just as he has had to adapt throughout his life.
