Wednesday's Child Treygan

 

Treygan, born in 2010, is a sweet, caring and helpful African American/Caucasian boy with good manners who likes to tell jokes. He has been stable in his foster home since 2018. He enjoys being read to, singing karaoke, listening to ‘KIDZ BOP’ songs, and playing with ‘Thomas the Tank Engine' outdoors. He would thrive in a family who is very patient and supportive of his needs. Math and reading are Treygan’s favorite subjects, but he also takes a special interest in foreign languages such as Spanish and Arabic. Treygan enjoys watching shows or sports games on television with his foster family. He is also very interested in computer games. Treygan needs a loving and patient adoptive family who will provide him with the lifelong care, attention, support, encouragement, structure, and nurturing environment he needs to continue to thrive.
