Joanna, Sofia, Jacob, Kendra and Emily are doing very well. Joanna has enrolled in a writing class and her teacher says she is a very promising young writer. Sofia has become great friends with Willow, who loves having a playmate with the same interests. Jacob was the saddest child at first, greatly missing his sister. However, he surprising connected the most with Poppy and Ashley. Poppy reminds him of Erin. Kendra has gained weight and is much healthier. We are grateful that she is better, though she had to spend a month in the hospital. She and Sean are friends now, they are like twins, with Kendra following Sean around everywhere. Emily has become our little ray of sunshine. She is always smiling and is never angry or cross. She loves her big family. Emily is always talking about something new and when ever there is music, Emily is dancing around the house!

The pets are also well. Molly and Jolly are finally friendly with Maggie. And none of them have eaten Flip yet! Emily quickly learned to be gentle with the dogs, after an unfortunate incident.

Thank You for giving us our lovely children,
Rose, Freddy, Poppy, Lily, Willow, Sean, Ashley, Joanna, Sofia, Jacob, Kendra and Emily
