Edlina and Albert are very close and look out for one another.  Both are very socially outgoing and personable.  Like most sibling relationships Albert and Edlina will occasionally have arguments, but are quick to reconcile their disputes. 

Albert loves to play football and basketball. He hopes to one day be a professional football player.  If Albert’s football dreams do not prevail he has aspirations of becoming a lawyer.  He also has a very creative side and enjoys drawing and writing short stories.  Albert gets along well with others but like most teens has the occasional dispute with his peers and can be mischievous. 

Edlina enjoys watching horror movies, listening to music and playing card games.  In her free time she also likes to read, and collect beads to create necklaces and bracelets.  Edlina has a warm heart and deeply cares for other people.  She desires to be a therapist one day to help children in need. One of Edlina’s favorite places to eat is the Golden Corral restaurant.  She really loves animals and someday wishes to have a dog or cat of her own.  Edlina is able to maintain good relationships with others because of her sincere caring for other people. 

Albert and Edlina are looking for a permanent adoptive home that will provide them with unconditional love and support.  They are in need of a one- or two-parent family to continue to support their ongoing interests and pursuit of their dreams and goals.  

"Edlina and Albert were incredibly fun to photograph. They very clearly enjoy each other’s company, and spent a great deal of time laughing (and getting me to laugh with them). Edlina was kind, charming, and seemed very grounded; Albert loved acting a bit sillier. He had much more fun with the photographs when he was pretending to hold a rubber chicken, or when he was making a heart symbol with his hands at the ducks. They are both great kids, and deserve a great family." – Tasha Conti, photographer
