Zaya is friendly and sweet as can be! She enjoys spending time with people and making new friends. She communicates using her unique language of smiles and laughter, sharing her joy with everyone around her. Zaya loves anything pink and girly. One of her favorite activities is getting dolled up and having her hair done. Arts and crafts, especially painting, is another favorite for Zaya. Spending time outside or taking a stroll through the park is sure to create fond memories and bring tons of laughter and smiles. Zaya loves to play with dolls, bubbles, playdough, and projected lightshows! Zaya is a truly special child who embraces life. Zaya is very outgoing and social; a family with older, more independent children who are attentive and caring will provide important companionship for Zaya. Zaya expressed excitement when discussing pets such as cats, dogs, and bunnies. A home with a calm, friendly, well-behaved pet may also be considered.
