Lily, 10 years old, AZ

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 super excited to add a big, shiny silver "L" to her shiny acrylic shelf! She has made her cozy space under her loft bed so warm and inviting, and her foster sister has an amazing large wooden "V" on her side. When they put their letters together, they make a perfect pair!
