About Jewel's family
The kids live with their single mother. Big sister loves helping with her brother, and little brother loves to tag along with his sister. He often forgets he isn't as big as her and he can't do everything she does; but that doesn't stop him from at least trying. The family had recently faced some setbacks when mom lost her transportation, but that didn't stop them from spending time as a family together. They often go for walks to a local playground where they love to exercise and blow off steam. Mom recently got a new job, and with the help of Firefly's budget curriculum, they are on their way to having a car again. Mom is hoping this will lead them to being able to participate in more activities with school and the new family resource center in town.

About Rhi'Lynn
Age: 7 | Gender: Female | Race: Bi-Racial/Multi-Racial
One thing about Rhi'Lynn, 7, is she is always going to have her hair done. She loves to wear beads and braids in her hair. She and her mother are learning to care for her hair correctly and learning how to keep her hair texture healthy and moisturized. One of their bonding activities once a week is to redo her hair and give her fresh beads or braids. Rhi'Lynn is Stitch (from Lilo and Stich) crazy. It is one of her favorite cartoons to watch, and she laughs telling you about how Stitch talks and how he loves Elvis, too. She loves to cook and has an Easy Bake oven, you can often find her making little deserts for her and her brother with it.

About Rha'Shon
Age: 3 | Gender: Male | Race: Bi-Racial/Multi-Racial
Rha'Shon, 3, is a very active little boy with a mischievous grin and a big heart. He wears braces on his legs but it does not stop him from being constantly on the go. He loves to run and jump, especially on his trampoline. Rha'Shon loves to watch Paw Patrol and will describe each episode in almost perfect detail if you let him. He loves dinosaurs and has almost perfected his dino roar. Rha'Shon hopes Santa can bring him a special pair of shoes that will help him be able to put them on over his braces more than anything, as he hopes for the independence of not needing his mother to put them on for him all the time.
