RICHMOND, Va. -- Meet energetic Rajae. The 16-year-old is full of laughter.
"My friends might say I'm goofy," she said. "I like to play and I'm talkative."
She also likes swimming, taking walks, and watching movies.
She's artistic and enjoys drawing as well as dancing and gymnastics.
"I'm proud of myself for coming this far and maintaining my goals, instead of giving up so easily," she said.
Rajae is focused on becoming either a marine biologist or a lawyer.
"I want people to know that just because I come from a tough situation, don't mean I can't turn around," she said.
She hopes she can find a trusting loving family who can help maintain her relationships with her siblings.
"I want to belong in a family because sometimes you just need somebody to call," she said.
Valentine's Day is Rajae's favorite holiday which she looks forward to sharing with her forever family.
