Charlie's speech was a little delayed, but after speech therapy he has really blossomed and loves a good joke. His giggle is infectious, and it becomes louder as he runs around with endless energy. He loves cuddles, kisses and being surrounded by his dogs and family.
What are Charlie's favorite activities?Charlie loves a challenge. He enjoys boardgames, Legos, memory matching, magnetic tiles and he wants to be a part of everything with his big sister. Charlie enjoys imaginitive play outside, and playing games on his tablet.
How would $25,000 impact your family?If Charlie won Toddler of the Year, the $25,000 would help our family pay for Charlie's medical bills, and give us the money to complete the adoption process that we started in 2020 when we thought having another biological child was not going to happen. We started the adoption process, and then found out we were pregnant with Charlie, and he would make it to his birthday. Charlie has been a blessing to our family, and we cannot wait to add a younger sibling through adoption.
