Syriana Dreams of One Day Being in a Loving Family with a Dog [TUESDAY’S CHILD]

Syriana is a caring 16-year-old girl.  She describes herself as pretty, awesome, and a talented artist.  Those that know Syriana would describe her as a nice girl who is a little silly and imaginative.  Syriana enjoys being creative and working on art projects.  She has a love of horses and really enjoys horseback riding! 

Syriana likes all of the major subjects in school including math, language arts, science, and social studies.  She especially enjoys learning about different ways to solve math problems.  She is not a big fan of electives like gym and music.  Syriana has shared that when she grows up, she wants to be a role model for others and raise money for those in poverty. 

Syriana is looking forward to becoming part of an adoptive family.  Syriana dreams of one day having a family dog, the opportunity to take gymnastics and art classes, and to have a family vacation to Disney and Legoland. 

Syriana shared that she would like a potential adoptive family to know that she is brave, but afraid of insects, spiders, and worms.  She is open to having a mom, a mom and dad or a two mom family.  Syriana’s three wishes for a family are to respect her, to be nice, and to let her choose a name for the family dog.  Her social worker says that the ideal family for Syriana would be a family that has had parenting experience.

Adoption from foster care is completely free in Massachusetts.

The process to adopt a child from foster care includes training, interviews and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you. These steps will help match you with a child or sibling group that will be a good fit.
