Photolisting Profile for James

James is a 5-year-old boy from Oregon who is hoping to be adopted.

James, Levi, and Hannah are a beautiful sibling group who present with a combination of both many strengths and challenges. While Levi currently lives in a separate foster home, James and Hannah are placed together. These are very lovable children who are all looking for a very special family to call their own.

James is an especially handsome, sweet little boy with light blonde hair and a light complexion. He has bright blue eyes with a smile that sparkles. His smile shows a very innocent and sweet nature about him. He likes to laugh and play with his sister, Hannah. He enjoys playing with toy cars and trucks as well as playing on the foster mother's swing set.

James can be described as inquisitive, sweet, and energetic. At times, James likes to help out around the house with Hannah. While James has some challenges, he has made tremendous gains since being in care.

Levi is a bubbly, cute boy with a light complexion and very light blonde hair as well. He resembles James and they have even been mistaken for twins. He has blue eyes and a warm smile that lights up his face. He likes to play on the computer and can even type words, such as macaroni and cheese. He enjoys listening to music and likes when the foster father plays musical instruments for him. Levi can be described as a quirky, energetic, and determined boy. Levi is very skilled in some areas yet has some hindrances in others. He can be very detail oriented and much of the time becomes distracted.

Hannah is a very strong spirited, inquisitive little girl with blonde hair, blue eyes with light complexion. She has a very sweet laugh that makes one laugh upon hearing it. She likes to dance to music and follows her older brother, James, around to try and keep up with him. She likes to play on the swing set at her foster mother's home.

James, Levi, and Hannah, are in need of a loving home that is able to provide consistency, routine, and affection. The adoptive family should know how to access necessary resources, have the time to take them to their numerous medical appointments, and advocate for their educational needs. The adoptive family needs to provide a home with structure and predictability. They should have educated themselves regarding the special needs of the children and agree to use behavior management techniques. The family should provide many opportunities for education, socialization, and pursuing individual interests. The children do have a bond to their biological parents and should be open to maintaining contact with the birth family after placement.
