Meet Tristen, Who Knows How to Stay Cool

In this Thursday's Child, Rusty Gatenby introduces Tristen, a 12-year-old who knows how to stay cool at Valley Fair.

Tristen is getting ready to start the seventh grade. She likes math and geography.

She's been in foster care for three years, but thinks about adoption a lot.

Tristen said, "I do and sometimes I don't because I get a little nervous."

But she doesn't get nervous when staring down the water rides at Valley Fair. Click play to see her convince Rusty to face off against a big wave.

If you would like to adopt Tristen or any of Minnesota's waiting children, call 612-861-7115.
