Hailey, who goes by Kai, has written a letter so readers can get to know her.

Hi, I am a sociable, funny, cool, kind, sweet, and outgoing person. I am someone who likes to stay on topic, listen to others, and am a good planner. I consider myself a brave person and a hard worker. I would also describe myself as artistic and creative. I enjoy singing, playing guitar, and making crafts. I also like to ride horses, play hockey, video games, board games, and go swimming. I like to cook, bake, and draw anime. I was recently accepted to a local trade school, and I am excited to start there. I hope to open a restaurant one day and learn how to cook more.

I have several family members who I am close with including my aunt and grandmother. I am particularly close with my aunt who I speak with about funny things, my emotions, and my hopes.

I am looking for a family that will love me and have fun with me! I would like to do many activities with my family including horseback riding, arts and crafts, movie nights, and cooking/baking. I also would be a big help to my family by doing chores, playing with any siblings, and making everyone laugh. I would also love a visiting resource. I hope to speak with you soon!

Sincerely, K
