Wish submitted by:

Lily is a truly beautiful and inquisitive little girl who has recently found her forever home after being adopted from foster care. After a challenging time in kinship care where her needs went unmet, she was placed in a loving licensed foster home. Since then, Lily has made incredible strides in expressing her feelings and learning to navigate the trauma she has faced. Even on days that feel heavy, she radiates warmth and positivity, reminding everyone of her bright spirit. Though Lily has been welcomed into her adoptive family, the shadows of her past still linger. She continues to face hurdles linked to the difficult experiences she endured before her journey to foster care. However, surrounded by the unwavering love and nurturing environment of her new family, she is receiving the support and understanding she needs to flourish. With every step forward, Lily's resilience shines through, and her story is one of hope and enduring love.

Lily is excited to create a comfortable and personal space just for herself with her new loft bed. After many sleepless nights sharing a bedroom with her cousin, their caregivers recognized the need for privacy and decided to rearrange their spaces so that each girl could have her own room. Now, with plans to add a twin-size mattress to her loft bed, Lily is ready to transform her new space into a cozy retreat.
