About Marcellous
Here’s a pretty powerful proclamation on Marcellous’ behalf: “He deserves a chance at love, laughter, happiness and parents who will be there for him,” one of the adults close to him says. Marcellous is looking for a forever family who loves being as active as he does. “He loves anything where he can run around and use his energy!” says one of his close adults. Marcellous enjoys dancing and playing basketball, which is his specialty in organized competition. Marcellous loves singing and hopes to join a choir one day, and he likes playing on his tablet and putting puzzles together. Marcellous also counts chicken wings among his favorite foods, but truth be told, he’ll eat almost anything. “He is not a picky eater.” In addition to all of his other favorite activities, Marcellous enjoys reading and writing, which he prefers doing on a computer keyboard. Marcellous will fit in well with a forever family who enjoys doing things together, or as a close adult puts it, “anything where he can be active and experience different types of activities.”
“Marcellous is always smiling and is overall a very happy person!” says one of the adults who cares about him most. “Marcellous is very smart! His teachers call him their star student and say he is a leader in the classroom. Marcellous is unique in his own way. He is a shy but playful child with a good sense of humor.”
Marcellous needs a patient parent or parents who are experienced and trauma informed. His new parent or parents must be able to give Marcellous the attention he requires, and they must be fierce advocates for the services he needs to thrive. Marcellous does well with other children, so he can be in a forever family with or without other youngsters.
