Receive Text UpdatesCarter (CJ) is bursting with personality! He loves pretending to be all kinds of animals—his favorites are gorillas, lions, tigers, snakes, and of course, dinosaurs. Basically, if it growls or roars, he’s all about it! 🦁🦖🐍 He’s always on the move, full of energy, and constantly performing wild little “stunts” that keep everyone on their toes. While he might be a little shy at first, once he warms up to you, you’re instantly part of his inner circle—and he’ll want to show you everything. 🧡
What are Carter's favorite activities?Carter (CJ) is all about fun and adventure! He’s always up for an activity—whether it’s splashing in water, exploring parks, chasing bubbles, or diving into pretend play with his sister. He has a blast lining up blocks (or anything he can find!). And when the music starts? You better believe he’s dancing! 💃🕺 There’s never a dull moment with CJ—his curiosity and creativity are nonstop!
How would $25,000 impact your family?My husband works from home, and I’m a stay-at-home mom of two. Our daughter is in school, but CJ isn’t quite ready for daycare yet, so we’re living on one income. A $25,000 boost would go a long way toward covering bills, groceries, and essentials—plus help us plan for the kids’ needs and take a much-needed, well-deserved family vacation.
