American Girl doll for Lydia to open Christmas morning

Posted Oct 13, 2024
As the only girl in a house full of boys, Olivia finds joy in playing with dolls, creating her own imaginative world. She has long admired her neighbor’s American Girl doll, often dreaming of having one of her own. Olivia’s foster mom has noticed her excitement as she flips through the catalog and browses online, always returning to the doll that resembles her. This Christmas, granting her wish for that special doll will bring immense joy to Olivia and create a magical moment on Christmas morning when she discovers it waiting for her under the tree!

Lydia is 6 years old and lives in PA

Lydia is a sweet girl who has basically been in charge of keeping her brothers safe since she was tiny! She mothers them and make sure they have what they need. Since coming into foster care Lydia has been given a chance to be a kid! She loves to draw and pant and even got to try out dance this summer. Due to the abuse in her first home she does have some delays but with therapy and extra help the people in her life are working to help her overcome those things.
