Meet Yahya– Boy with endless potential yearns for love
Posted
When asked what he would want a family to know about him, Yahya says, “I want them to know I love everyone.”
Yahya’s sweet and affectionate disposition carries him through everything he does. His child specific adoption recruiter says the 12-year-old is one of the most positive souls you’ll ever meet and has an enthusiastic and innocent spirit.
The young man’s gentleness carries to his hobbies and interests. He loves dogs and hopes to have his own one day. He expresses his creativity through coloring, Legos, puzzles, and Playdoh. Yahya also greatly enjoys community outings and is open to trying new experiences.
Yahya hopes for a loving, nurturing, and dedicated forever family. He would do best as an only child and needs a family that is experienced with trauma. A family with a stay-at-home parent would be a great match, but consistency and structure is what is most needed.
Yahya is ready to give a lifetime of love to a family, and he is eager to receive the same.
