It's hard to sum up a person by their likes, but it gives a little glimpse into his world. Sean is a little independent boy. He loves to do everything for himself if he can. He doesn't cry when we leave him in the Nursery, and is usually very happy and energetic. He is very easygoing, but can be stubborn at times. Sean is a very intelligent little boy. He is curious about things and sometimes it can get him into trouble. He tries very hard to communicate his needs through sign language or by speaking. He loves to be with people, but can also play by himself very well. He makes us laugh often, and reminds us that life does not have to be complicated when simple things are fun and exciting. We love you, Sean!
