Romola Luciana, 10
from Italy Keiko Meien, 2
from HawaiiWe talked with Romola when she first moved in, and she said she didn't particularly liked her name, so she decided to change it to Luciana Romola, nn Lucy. She has olive-y skin, dark green eyes and long, curly, almost-black hair. She is so beautiful! She loves to play with Kei, and is a great big sister! She loves dance, cheer and basketball, and she also likes to write, something she is very talented at! She is coming on well with English; she alrady knew quite a bit, but now she is living here in England she is just getting better and better! She is having some problems with the writing and reading part, though, which is a shame because she writes so well, but hardly anyone can understand it! My husband Josh and I both speak Italian so we can understand her easily. We didn't change Keiko's name, but we gave her the nn Kei, or sometimes Keia. She looks quite similar to Lucy; dark skin, very dark eyes, and short, almost-black straight hair. She doesn't speak much English, but then she doesn't speak much of any language, so we are hoping to teach her to speak both, and Italian if we can do it. She is a loud, happy child who is *very* active! Thankfully, Lucy loves to watch her so we know she is always safe. Thank you for giving us these beautiful girls!
Josh, Katherine, Lucy and Kei
