Lily, 10 years old, AZ

Wish submitted by:

Grace Retreat Foster Care and Adoption Services

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 loves reading her favorite books and playing her sheet music at night when it’s quiet. To make her late-night fun even better, she picked a cute LED headband light. Now, she can read without waking up her foster sister, allowing her to enjoy those sweet dreams!

"Hi Lily. Or should we say “L”. You are so thoughtful to want to find a way to allow your foster sister, or should we say “V”, to sleep when you want to do your nighttime reading. Here’s a cute quote from Dr. Seuss about reading: “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” Sweet dreams to “V” and keep reading on!! Best wishes, “V” & “T"
