About this Kid

This active teen loves to be outside! Meet Edward, who prefers to go by “EJ”. EJ loves skateboarding, fishing, or joining the latest pick-up basketball game with his friends. Basketball is his all-time favorite sport, and he dreams of playing in the NBA someday. However, he is also a talented artist and likes drawing in his spare time. One of his favorite colors to work with is white, and he’s often most inspired by the graphic designs in his favorite video games. EJ admires Spiderman as a superhero, but he would prefer to have superspeed as a power if he could. Cats are this guy’s favorite animal, and he loves eating crab legs for dinner. EJ is known for being outgoing and making friends easily. He has a great sense of humor and is caring.

He is now in ninth grade, and science is his favorite subject.

EJ would do best in a home with a mom and dad where he can be the youngest child. A family in an urban setting with pets is preferred; however, all family types will be considered. EJ has significant connections to maintain following placement. Financial assistance may be available for adoption-related services.

For Missouri children, both home studied and non-home studied Missouri families are encouraged to inquire; only home studied families from other states should do so.
