Meet Jonathan
Photographed by: Leah Shaw
Jonathan is a very intelligent young man. He was
born in December 1995. He loves reading adventure books and playing
with action figures. He is on the A/B honor roll at school. Jonathan is
very appreciative of anything that is done for him. He is small for his
age. He wears glasses to correct vision problems.
His three wishes for the future are: to be adopted; to grow up and
have a good family; and he wants to go to Heaven. Jonathan wants so
much to be a part of a loving home. He has a lot to offer a family.
He loves to talk about current events and sports. He is very
gracious and well mannered, saying thank you, ma'am and sir often. He
wants to be a Marine when he is old enough. Jonathan needs a home that
will help him develop his talents and support him in his endeavors as
he grows up.

Antonio, born May 1998, was in 4th grade for the 2007-08 school year.
He is known to be a good student. His favorite subject in school is
science because he likes "the stuff" (experiments) that students
perform. In his previous school he was in classes for "gifted" students
and he is on an advanced level at his current school. He loves the
outdoors. Antonio is described as being independent.
Robert, born March 2000, might be considered a "charmer." He
usually appears to be somewhat shy on the surface but he can become
active or busy. He is very fond of his big brother. He received extra
help at school to help with a language disorder. He tends to
communicate through art and is a very talented artist. As his teacher
described his work, his pictures "reach for you", i.e., his faces he
sketches may show an emotion or a "stare" versus a simple smiling face.
Antonio & Robert share a close bond and would be a wonderful addition to a loving family.
