Meet Riley and Michael – Sister and brother ready to grow with family

Twelve-year-old Riley and her five-year-old brother, Michael, are an active, fun loving duo who can’t wait to share their enthusiasm with a forever family.
Riley can be shy at first, but her quick sense of humor has nowhere to hide. Once she is comfortable with a new person, she is very social and chatty.
Some of Riley’s favorite activities include swimming, coloring, and watching TV. She loves spicy boneless wings and wants to learn how to cook. At school, Riley likes her math and social studies classes but says the best part is seeing her friends. After she graduates high school, Riley would like to join either the police or fire department.
Michael is outgoing and loves to figure out how and why things work the way they do. He loves to spend time with adults who want to play with him especially if it involves his trucks or Paw Patrol toys. Michael is not in kindergarten yet, but his eagerness to learn and interact is sure to translate well to school. He says his favorite foods include peanut butter, ice cream, and chicken nuggets from Burger King.
The pair are excited to find a family all their own and prefer one where Michael can be the youngest child. Riley and Michael like the idea of having family pets, but are most excited to receive one-on-one attention from loving parents.
Riley says to her family means having, “people who love and care about you”.
