Ian

Ian is a kid who is not short on creativity, humor, or brains! Science, slime, and the solar system currently hold his interest. He says he’d like to be a running back in the NFL someday, and then perhaps become a science teacher! Ian is very observant of the people around him and is quick to find ways to make them laugh and feel comfortable. His soft heart and instinct to defend and protect those he cares for makes him a natural advocate who speaks up for others. A true extrovert, he loves people and connects easily with adults and his peers. He’s quite artsy and crafty! It comes easily to him and he's good at it. He’s also good at explaining things to others and drawing them in to participate.

Ian firmly believes that every child should have a family. At one point, he wished he could be Santa Claus so he could help every kid in the world! He has such a big heart and would like a forever family that will love all of him. Ian uses he/him pronouns but also goes by Khloe sometimes. His forever family will be patient and supportive of him while he is confirming his identity. A family who has the ability to spend one-on-one time with Ian and can provide security, love, and healthy boundaries will help him succeed. When asked about his forever family, Ian wished for two moms and a couple of older siblings! His forever family will also understand the importance of him maintaining a relationship with his three older siblings.
