Lyric is a vibrant, resilient young boy who has shown incredible strength while navigating multiple placements since entering foster care. While adjusting to new homes and environments has been challenging, sports have become his ultimate outlet to connect, heal, and express his determination. Whether he is running cross country or competing in football and basketball, Lyric pours his heart into every game, drawing inspiration from athletes like Steph Curry. His foster parents are dedicated to helping him build healthy coping skills and confidence both on the field and in the classroom. With his natural energy and persevering spirit, Lyric continues to push through obstacles as he builds a foundation for a brighter future.

Lyric has noticed on TikTok that using a weighted blanket can help improve sleep. He hopes to receive one for Christmas, as he believes it will help him feel more comfortable at night in his new foster home. He's been having some trouble resting and thinks the blanket could help calm him down.
