YNN has introduced you to Denver, a fun loving kid with a caring personality, before. He?s still in foster care, but he?s hopeful he?ll find his forever family.

We met up with Denver at Spirit Reins to talk about why now, more than ever, he's ready to go home for good.

There's no shortage of laughter and smiles when you hang around Denver for a little while. But we also had a serious talk about adoption and finding a family.

"Keep on telling myself someone's gonna adopt me," he said.

I've met up with Denver three times on Forever Families, and like many people who have met this sweet 16-year-old, I'm stumped as to why he's still waiting in foster care.

"They tell me I'm funny, 'You're nice,?? Denver said. ?I bought one of my friend's ice cream and they said, 'Dang, Denver you're too nice.'"

Every year he gets older, and the statistics don't look as bright as he nears aging out of the system. But Denver's not worried.

He said he's changed his attitude and keeps positive about finding his family. He's not picky when it comes to things like living in the city or in the country. He just wants to be loved.

"Not a mean family, I know that, not a mean one. A nice family," he said.

Denver would like to have siblings to play with, and a place he can feel safe. He plans to become a mechanic some day. Math and science are his favorite subjects.

"Just hope and pray and see if it really happens,? he said.

Denver can't wait to start his new life in a forever home. For more information about this sweet 16-year-old boy, contact the Adoption Coalition of Texas at info@adopttexas.org.
