Makenna is an adorable 13 year old girl who will be aging out next January. Makenna is delayed on her mental development compared to her peers but her caretakers say that she works very hard in school. She is described as being tender and gentle and always a huge help with taking care of the younger kiddos in the orphanage. Makenna doesn’t have any physical delays; she can walk, run, jump and go up and downstairs on her own. She is an active kiddo who loves to dance, play sports and be outside! Makenna has made secure bonds with her caretakers and teachers and has close relationships with her peers.
One of our China Matching Specialists met Makenna in China earlier this year and she would be happy to speak with any families that are interested in learning more about Makenna! You can contact one of our China Matching Specialists if you would like to review Makenna’s file!
As of the time Florence’s file was prepared, she was not yet walking without assistance, but her photos show that she can stand with support of the wall, and she can sit up by herself. She was not speaking at the time her file was prepared, but her file indicates that she understood what adults were saying to her and that when her name was called that she would respond to it. She could wave hello and goodbye to people as they came and went, and that she could identify parts of her body and can point to them when asked. When she would hear the phone ring she would pretend to be holding a phone up to her ear using her hand. Florence would tend to be more timid, shy and introverted. Florence would like playing with other children, coloring and watching television. Florence could feed herself but still needed help putting on her clothes, but she could button up her shirt by herself.
