We have found three childrne for you.
Faith Alicia [8], Francesca Eloise [3], and Finley Gabriel [2]
The three siblings are from England. Faith is the older half-sister of Francesca and Finley. Francesca and Finley's father was abusive to their mother and to Faith, this ended with their mother attacking him when she saw him sexually abusing Faith and he beat her till she died. Faith had yelled at Francesca to call the cops and they came shortly after but their father had already ran off. They are still looking for him and Faith and Francesca are both going through emotional issues. Francesca no longer talks to anyone but her siblings and only communicates through drawings. Faith has seemed to move on and is very active at the home, however she does have many nightmares and she should not be bottling up what she has been. Finley is very bubbly and loves to run after his siblings.

Thank you so much for bringing these children into our lives!
Faith is doing very well with Amelia, and our recently adopted Ginny. Ginny and she are the same age and have become the best of friends. Amelia looks up to Faith, and this makes Faith very happy.
My husband and I were quite concerned about Francesca (Chessie) at first. We got a counselor for her (as well as Faith), and she has been less reclusive - she used to spend all her time in the room she shares with Faith.
What can I say about little Fin? He is so happy and active, and all of us love him! He gets along very well with everyone, and he has made a best friend of my husband.
Just last weekend, the seven of us went to the park and had a wonderful time. Even Chessie played in the sandbox with Amelia, though she did not say anything.
ETA - I forgot to mention that Chessie is continuing with her wonderful drawings! She and I went to an arts club meeting at the local rec center yesterday, and we both got to draw our hearts out! It feels so wonderful to be able to support my new daughter.
