Let me tell you about a little boy I met in China. His name is Lawrence! (Okay his real name is a Chinese name, but due to privacy issues we have given him an American advocacy name to protect his privacy ;)
How cute is this boy???? Our first sighting of him was in the classroom working on his Chinese writing and his numbers.
It turned out that he was participating in the advocacy camp and would be spending the day with us! This boy is adorable!! He is diagnosed with development delay, but he seems to be making great progress. He followed all the music teacher's directions. He sang songs and did motions and he was the only one out of all the kids there who was willing to stand up and show off for the visitors!! ;)
I noticed that he is quite small for his age. He honestly seemed a little developmentally delayed, but it didn't strike me personally as anything more than institutional delays which from my experience have been overcome quite quickly.
He was such a happy guy!! Eager to play and blow bubbles and just be a silly kid!!
Our advocates played games with him and even observed him putting together a lego set by himself.
He is just such a special little boy!!!! His biggest need is a family!! A family that will love him, support him, make him laugh, and help him reach his full potential.
Are you that family? He is currently listed with Gladney. Additional information can be found at the link below.
