<em> Wednesday's Child: </em> Dominique

Dominique is only ten years old but she's already planning for her future:

"A professional singer or songwriter."

(Larry Kane:)  "Now, if that doesn't work out, do you have a backup plan?"
(Dominique:)  "A vet."
(Larry Kane:)  "A veterinarian?  What do you like, dogs or cats?"
(Dominique:)  "Dogs!"

Dominique is hoping for that forever family, and she explains why:

(Dominique:)  "They can show love."
(Larry Kane:)  "What do you mean by 'show love'?"
(Dominique:)  "They can give me the things that I need and stuff."

And her social worker, Elissa Flynn, says Dominique would be a good addition to any family:

"She is a generally very happy girl.  She's got a great smile, and she's always warm and friendly with others.  I think that Dominique would excel in a home where she is with someone who is able to keep her stable and happy and show her love and affection."
