Wednesday's Child: 15-Year-Old Syriana

(MARE) - Syriana is a caring 15 year old girl who describes herself as pretty, awesome, and a talented artist. Those that know Syriana would describe her as a nice girl who is a little silly and imaginative. Syriana enjoys being creative and working on art projects. She has a love for all animals, especially horses; in fact, Syriana is a great horseback rider!

Syriana is legally freed for adoption and is looking forward to becoming part of an adoptive family! Syriana would like a dog, the opportunity to take gymnastic and art classes, and to be able to go to Disney Land and Lego Land someday. Syriana shared that she would like a potential adoptive family to know that she is brave but afraid of insects, spiders, and worms. Syriana would like a mom, mom and dad or a two mom family. Syriana's three wishes for a family are to respect her, to be nice, and to let her choose a name for the family dog. An ideal family for Syriana would be a family that has had parenting experience.
