[Games] Re: Bopperlynn's Adoption Agency
Zhou Huang is 7 and from China. He is reserved and very introverted. He prefers solitary activities such as drawing, painting, coloring, reading, watching movies, or solving puzzles. His absolute favorite thing to do is puzzles. He loves actual puzzles, word puzzles, word games, math puzzles; anything that can be solved or put together in that sense.
He has been in orphanages for the past 3 years. His family history is unknown, though experts think it's possible that he was neglected by his family. He has been known to open up to people he fully trusts, and often the best way to get through to him is through art or puzzles.
Elijah David "Eli" is 11 and from the United States. He loves the outdoors, and also has a strong love for the arts. His favorite things to do are play sports, draw, read, or go camping.
He has always been in foster care and is happy he has a chance at having a family. He is really looking foward to having brothers and sisters.
Eli is a very religious Catholic and would love to be allowed to attend mass and related activities.
Imani Kamaria is a two month old girl from Eastern Africa. She is healthy and happy.
Please keep the agency updated on how Zhou, Eli, and Imani adjust!

DRabbit: Widget (1- Holland Loop)Over the last three years, we have adopted three children who have made our family complete (at least right now). We first decided to adopt a baby- feeling that we already had two children of our own and we could make add to our family not by birth but by adopting children who do not have parents. To be honest, we hadn't even considered adopting older children until later.Imani Kamarai, who we remamed Imogene Maria, is now a spunky three-year old. She absolutely loves everything we do together and didn't go through her terrible twos- I'm wondering if it will hit later on. Being the youngest two, our girls get along perfectly. They love to wear matching clothes and hid out in their playhouse in our backyard. Since the adoption, we have not gone back to Africa, but we plan to when Imogene is a little older.Our next adoption happened a year later, while we were processing an adoption with China actually. Elijah David "Eli" began attending our church with a new foster family. Although sometimes bitter, he was a sweet boy. When the foster family began having some health problems, Eli was very scared he'd be taken away somewhere else and he loved the community he was in. Christopher and I talked about it and then presented Eli with the idea of adoption. Already knowing our family and getting along fabulously with Christopher (no one would guess he was adopted when they see the two together), he hugged us and said yes. Since then, he has been a wonderful addition to our family. He is truly a great big brother (Although Anika likes to push the limits with this). He sometimes struggles with school, but we work with him on this and he now has a B average in his seventh grade class!Our last family member to be brought into the Vincent family is Zhou Huang.
