Kennedy: Full of Sweet Surprises

June 12, 2018 Children Who Wait 0 Comments

Kennedy is a beautiful and joyful little girl, born in September of 2012, who loves to wear dresses and skirts! One day after her foster mother bought her a new skirt, she stood in front of the mirror admiring herself and beamed happily when her foster mother said, “Kennedy is just like a fairy in the skirt!”



Kennedy is an active and outgoing girl, full of curiosity and a desire to explore. Kennedy was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at a young age. At 21 months of age, she began to learn to walk, taking shaky steps with support. By two years of age, she could crawl around very fast!

Kennedy joined a foster family in December of 2013 and she’s made steady progress ever since. By four years old, Kennedy began walking on her own, though unsteady. She could also feed herself. In June of 2016 she said “mama,” and though it wasn’t fully clear, it was a big step for her! She like playing with toy drums and playing outside on the slide.

Kennedy’s foster family believes she will only continue to surprise everyone as she continues to grow and develop! Kennedy is listed with Madison Adoption Associates.

Could your family be forever blessed and surprised by this joyful little girl?



There is a $500 agency grant for Kennedy’s adoption with Madison Adoption Associates. Other grants may be available based on the adoptive family’s circumstances. Agency grants are awarded as agency fee reductions. MAA also partners with the Brittany’s Hope Foundation for matching grants, which are given out twice a year (January and July) and to families that are officially matched with a child.

Kennedy needs a family with an approved home study to be able to hold her file or move forward with adopting her. If you have an approved home study or a home study in process and are interested in adopting Kennedy, please fill out a free PAP Waiting Child Review Form, which can be found here.
