Aria, 16 years old

Wish submitted by:

Aria is a fun energetic little girl who lives with her paternal aunt and uncle. Her father is deceased and her mother has not had the stability to care for her for over nearly 3 years. Mom rarely makes the effort to stay in contact with Aria. Every chance she gets to see or talk to her mom, she is ecstatic. Unfortunately, these occurrences are very sporadic. Aria has two older brothers whom she adores, but they are in foster care in a different home. They come to see Aria as much as possible, but it's not the same as living with them. Soon, Aria will be adopted by her aunt and uncle, and she is looking forward to that permanency.

Haven would love to ride on the Polar Express, a real train ride that serves hot cocoa just like the book/movie. If she wears pajamas, she will also get to see the movie for free at the local theater following the train ride.
