Bella is a creative teen looking for a loving family to call her own

CHANDLER, AZ (AZFamily) — Thirteen-year-old Bella let her creativity soar when she stopped into Burst of Butterflies in Chandler.

There, she got a one-on-one painting tutorial.

Bella was not too talkative when we met, which is understandable with sometimes shy teens, but Josie with AASK, the adoption recruiter Arizona’s Family works with, said Bella makes friends fast.

“She is also very caring,” Josie said. “Once she makes a friend with someone, she has a friend for life. She has a really great soft spot for those she cares about.”

Bella loves creativity and imagination, whether it’s art, music or exploring nature.

“She really likes to express herself and find new creative ways to do so,” Josie said.

Josie said she would do great in almost any family. “She does really great, like most people do with attention,” she said. “And getting that one on one attention and a family that supports her as she embarks on her teenage years.”

Bella loves helping and having a sense of belonging.

A small or big family is fine by her as long as she can be an important and recognized part of it.

“Bella is really a team player and that extends to family friends, to everybody, she really like to feel involved,” Josie said.

Bella likes spending time with her aunt and brother but is also excited to join a family she can call her own and paint a new picture filled with love and acceptance.
