Oregon Child

Christopher is a boy who is very outgoing. He has bright brown eyes and a smile that warms your heart. Christopher is very tall and looks a lot older than his age. Affectionate and warm, he has a very sweet personality. He loves video games and likes to play with board games and play dough. Christopher is not shy and likes to interact with people. Quite approachable, he is easy to play with. Christopher has a high energy level. He tends to have a difficulty sitting still and paying attention for long periods of time.

Christopher loves school and is always very excited about going. He gets along well with his peers and his teachers state that he is a joy to have in class. At this time, Christopher is on track with school and performing at an average school age level.

Christopher needs to establish stability and permanency in a safe and stable home, given all of the moves and changes he has endured. As he gains stability, it will be important for his adoptive parents to stay fully committed to providing and advocating for him, and exploring the very best ways to meet his needs. Christopher needs to know very clearly what the expectations are, and to have positive reinforcement and appropriate consequences as he strives to meet expectations. He needs productive outlets for his energy, and opportunities to explore extracurricular activities. Christopher will benefit greatly from an adoptive family who can be by his side, every day, supporting him with structure, nurturance and consistency. How rewarding it will be to help Christopher blossom and grow!
