Rylan is a fun-loving, active kid who would love a forever family

Happy early Halloween from Wednesday's Child. Tonight we meet a boy in foster care and his social worker looking for an adoptive home for him. See why his costume for Halloween is Michael Jackson. I like pumpkin. The perfect pumpkins with Rylan on the hunt. The eight-year-old is costume ready for Halloween. Are you dressing up for Halloween? Yes. What are you going to be? Michael Jackson. Ooh, do you know how to dance? Can you moonwalk? You might have to show it to me. Okay. Oh my gosh, you're going to show me how to moonwalk? Yeah. Okay, can you do it in the hay? Yeah. Foster care. The social worker is looking for this in an adoptive home. She's very loving, someone who is going to be very nurturing but also firm. He's a spitfire. He's got a strong will, which are one of the many qualities I love about him. We used to read books a lot. So you like your social worker? Yes. Oh my gosh, what do you like about her? That she took me here and in November I'm going bowling. He's been through a lot, so somebody who understands trauma, and he is so bright, so someone who is going to really support school. Tell me one thing you like about school. I like to learn about math. He is really talented in a lot of ways, and he hasn't had the chance to do a lot of extracurriculars. What do you want to do when you grow up? Be a singer and a dancer. To learn more about adoption, call this DCFS hotline, 866-921-ADOP. That's 2-3-6-7. Thanks, Pa's Pumpkin Patch at Lakewood Center Mall for hosting. Who's Pa? Pa's my father. He passed away about 10 years ago. He's been doing Wednesday's Child forever. And that's why we kept doing it, because we thought it was such a great program for the kids. What do you like about that one? Because it has a little bit of colors. We had so much fun. Pa's Pumpkin Patch is open for your pumpkin pickings. It's across from the JCPenney at the Lakewood Center. He was a great kid, very bright. So cute. I almost said, kid, grab the pumpkin, get in the car, let's go. He's adorable. I love meeting him.
