Help[Games] Re: Ebba's adoption agency
in reply to a message by Ebba
Gretchen has lovely hair and she loves for me to do it in the morning. She really does mother the younger ones and has settled in really well. She never takes us for granted and seems really happyif we just read her a story at night.
Megan is very good at drawing, but she is a bit withdrawn. We are coping with this and hopefully are helping her by playing whenever she gets like that. She already has two good friends at school who have been round a couple of times.
Benjie is so cheeky but ever so cute! His ADHD is getting steadily worse but we don't mind as he is so lovable. He seems to be calming down at bedtime quicker now for some reason.
Spencer is gorgeous! He is quiet but talks a lot, though quietly, at home now. We are encouraging him to scream at the park and Benjie is always loud.
Cara has picked up simple words since being here, but we take her to a speech therapist now as well.

Thankyou for telling me how Gretchen, Megan, Benjie, Spencer and Cara are doing.
I am glad Gretchen has settled down so well with you, it is nice to hear she is helping you with the littler children. It sounds like Megan is starting to come out of her shell a little, which is encouraging news, i am very pleased that she has already made friends at school. Benjie has always been the most 'difficult' of the these cousins and it sounds like it might be advisable to review his medication, this might have some benefits for him in the long run.
Perhaps he is calmer at bedtime because it is a structured time? he knows exactly what will happen in certain orders and times. ADHD kids react well to routines. I am also gald to hear that Cara has started to say few things and that you are investing time and energy in a speech therapist for her.
Good luck to you and Gretchen, Megan, Benjie, Spencer and Cara.
