Meet James, 9. He is an outgoing, affectionate young man who has a quick wit and amazing sense of humor. James loves to play with Legos and Matchbox Cars. He is always willing to watch a funny video or movie while he enjoys a good PB&J sandwich or burrito. James would thrive with a two-parent family that will give support, guidance, and have plenty of attention and one-on-one time to share.
