Fifteen-year-old Careissa, 13-year-old Dylon and 11-year-old Penelope are three siblings who love each other dearly, but they don't share the same home.

The trio received a special meeting for an afternoon of fun and painting at The Art Garage. They're hopeful that a forever family can bring them together and complete the bond they've been waiting for.

"We haven't been together since I was 11, and I'm 15 now," Careissa said.

The girls say their brother Dylon loves to protect them.

"I don't want to be separated,” Dylon said. “I want to stay with my sisters because I love them."

The siblings are now looking for a family to seal them together forever.

"I want to get adopted so we can be together, and be able to have a family that we can be with for a long time," Careissa said.
