Joshua (age 10), and
Destini (age 12),

These siblings are a joy to be around. Shamyah is a happy, outgoing little girl full of energy. She gets along well with others but craves one-on-one attention. Shamyah loves to go to the beach and her favorite food is pizza.

Joshua is smart, well-mannered, and eager to learn. He enjoys helping out at home. Some of his favorite things are soccer, basketball, action figures, and spaghetti. He wants to be a doctor.

Destini has a beautiful smile to go along with her friendly personality. She loves spending time with her siblings, shopping, playing volleyball, and singing. She hopes to participate in Chorus once she’s adopted.

All of the children are doing well in school and are on grade level. These siblings are truly bonded and need a forever family where they can grow up together.

Tymarion (age 11)

Tymarion is confident, charismatic, and outgoing. He loves to play basketball or watch it on television. He wants to be a professional basketball player one day. Tymarion is helpful around the house and likes to help wash the car and plant in the garden.

Tymarion would do best in a two-parent family where expectations and personal boundaries are clearly set and followed. A family who could maintain a positive structured environment while encouraging him to develop his strengths would be ideal. It is important for his adoptive parents to be able to provide him with firm but loving discipline and close supervision. Tymarion is hoping to be adopted by a loving family who will help him maintain contact with his sibling.

Ezekiel “Zeke” (age 14)

Zeke is a wonderful young man! He enjoys sports, electronics, and reading. Zeke is a very helpful gentleman who loves sports. He wants to be a professional football player when he grows up. A social butterfly, he loves to spend time with family. Zeke is a loving child who gets along well with his friends, at home, and in school. He does well in school, making A’s and B’s. He is well liked by his teachers and peers and plays band and sports for the school.

Zeke has an older sister and it is very important that he maintain his relationship with his big sister and other birth family members. Zeke would prefer to be adopted by a family who lives in the southeastern portion of North Carolina. He would very much like a forever family where he has brothers around his age. Zeke needs to be made to feel that he is a part of the family not just until he turns 18, but forever.
