Wish submitted by:

Mary is a quiet little girl living in a foster home with her twin sister. She enjoys reading and coloring, and her favorite colors are yellow and green. Mary loves school and consistently earns good grades. Her artwork has even been displayed in the local library. Mary shares a close bond with her sister, and they support each other during this challenging time. She has a passion for animals and hopes to receive a kitten for her birthday. One of her favorite things is being tucked in bed and receiving big hugs from her foster mom.

Mary was recently placed in a kinship placement with a family member. Mary was so happy to be with her family but was very sad to leave her school and all of her friends. Mary recently started a new school and has made new friends. She is doing great in her new placement. Mary loves the color pink and tries to wear pink to school every day. She grew out of her pink shoes and recently asked for a new pair.
