After school, she enjoys choosing how to unwind, whether that's spending time on video games, heading outside, or taking a break to rest. On weekends, she looks forward to staying up late, visiting friends, and planning fun activities together, often bringing creativity and excitement into the moments she shares with others.
Mary is expressive, talkative, and full of ideas. She enjoys connecting with others and has a playful, social energy, especially when she's laughing at jokes or watching funny videos. She also has a creative side, seen in her interest in drawing, dancing, and putting together outfits or themed activities with friends.
At home, Mary participates in routines in her own way. She is capable of helping with tasks like sweeping and cleaning up, particularly when she feels motivated to do so.

Mary would do best in a home with two experienced parents who can provide structure, consistency, and encouragement.
