Jacob is a fun-loving, goofy pre-teen who loves a good challenge and to try new things!

An active boy, you can often find Jacob outside playing soccer, riding his bike, or meeting up with his friends in the neighborhood. A kind, outgoing boy, Jacob gets along well with his peers and puts everyone at ease.

Jacob enjoys school but he puts a lot of pressure on himself and can get frustrated when he doesn’t do well or doesn’t easily understand new concepts. He is always eager to be the best version of himself and make others proud.

Jacob is looking for a family that is close-knit and enjoys spending time together. He is open to one or two parents and would like to have siblings he can spend time with. Jacob is most eager for family movie nights and time spent together making happy memories.
