A staff member writes: I’ve never been to California, but I imagine it feels like sunshine and daisies. I didn’t even know what that felt like, until I met Cali. She’s so hilarious, independent, and spunky, almost like a little sister. I know she would make her future family happy, but you have to see that for yourself.
