This sweet little girl has been in care since she was approximately 5 days old and is waiting for her forever family. Upon admission she was found to be 18.8 inches tall and weighed 6.6 lbs. She has been diagnosed with Down syndrome as well as a heart murmur. She reportedly likes to dance with adults. She also enjoys playing with her peers whom she likes. She is described as an active little girl with strong adaptability and clear likes and dislikes. She enjoys playing and excitedly screams and laughs when she does. As of April 2011 she was able to walk alone, respond to her name, wave and follow simple instructions. In May 2011 she was 34.2 inches tall and weighed 30.8 lbs.

This little girl is in need of a family who are comfortable and prepared to parent a child with Down syndrome. Single moms permitted, only one parent has to travel.
