Azalea, 7 years old, NM |

Wish submitted by:

Azalea is happiest in motion. Whether she's swimming, playing outside with her siblings, or tinkering with electronics to see how they work, she brings the same curiosity and energy to everything she does. That same drive shows up in school too, where she's making great strides, especially in math. As the middle child of four, Azalea treasures her close bond with her siblings. In the middle of the changes that come with foster care, that connection has remained one steady, joyful constant in her life.

Azalea has been having difficulty with her reading at school. She expressed a desire to have Pete the Cat books to read at home. Azalea gets frustrated easily, which makes it challenging for her teachers and foster family to assist her. She mentioned that having some books would provide her with an opportunity to practice and improve her reading skills at home.
