David from Pennsylvania

David is a young man with curly brown hair, fair skin, dimples, and striking hazel green eyes. He has a happy smile, is expressive, has a good sense of humor, and enjoys engaging with people in conversation. He craves individual attention but gets along better with adults than children. His favorite activity is anything involving ?Ben Ten,? superheroes, and his wrestling action figures. He enjoys doing anything crafty especially if it involves stickers, but his favorite craft is origami and with encouragement could become even better at it. His favorite colors are pink and black. He loves going to the playground and playing. He's not a picky eater and is open to trying new things, sometimes with encouragement but does have favorite foods, such as tater tots, candy, and junk food ? but in moderation. He's also a fan of Dairy Queen Blizzards. David has many qualities that are endearing, such as his sense of humor, smile, and his good nature. He wants to be part of a loving relationship. He thrives on positive attention and responds well to reinforcement, structure, and boundaries. He'd love to have a pet someday, whether it's a cat or a dog. He can be very creative and is currently looking to find what type of superhero he is or can be. He's influenced especially by Marvel and DC movies and comic books. He would like a family who can be his superheroes!
