Makenzlee, 1 year old, NE | 1 DAY WAITING |

Wish submitted by:

Jenda Foster Care

Makenzlee is a bright and beautiful little girl who has grown so much since her premature birth and early NICU stay. Now thriving in her foster home alongside her twin brother, she’s blossomed into an active, expressive, and spirited child. Makenzlee’s personality grows sweeter and stronger each day - she’s curious, playful, and full of charm. She and her brother continue to light up every room they enter, bringing joy, laughter, and big smiles to anyone lucky enough to spend time with them.

Makenzlee’s Christmas wish this year is Whoever You Are: A Baby Book on Love & Gender. This thoughtful and educational board book is a beautiful way to help her feel seen, supported, and deeply connected to her foster family. With simple language and warm illustrations, it celebrates love, identity, and belonging - helping little ones understand that they are cherished exactly as they are! It's the perfect holiday gift to encourage bonding, emotional growth, and a sense of safety and acceptance during this special season!
