Congrats! You have been blessed with...Mariah Louise is a twelve year old girl from England. She lived with her grandparents for all of her life until they died last year. Though she is having a difficult time coping with the loss of her grandparents, She is ready to have a home of her own. Mariah really enjoys playing her dulcimer and hopes one day to perform.Saoirse Niamh is a fifteen year old girl from Ireland. After her parents were claimed by a massive house fire a few years ago, Saoirse fell into a deep bout of depression. Now, she is better, but still has an extreme fear of fire or anything that burns. She really enjoys her pet snake, Saphira. She also loves to go to the beach.Célestine Isabel is a thirteen year old girl from france. She had physically abusive parents, so she ran away at age ten. She just found one of our facilities the other day. She is leary about being adopted, because of past experiences, but is alright. It is difficult for her to trust any adult, but she will get used to you. She has a pet dog named Laurette, whom she loves very much.Filibert Luitger and his little brother Adam Lenz are two boys from Germany. Filibert is fourteen and Adam is twelve. Both boys are extremely intelligent. Filibert loves school and is looking forward to trying out an American school. Adam has a difficult time making friends, partially because he is shy and partially because the other kids think him "different". He got hit by a car when he was nine, and his arm had to be amputated, therefore the other kids think him "different".Please let us know how they are doing!

Thank you very much for bringing such joy into the lives of my husband, myself, and our children! Incidently, we now have a newborn boy by the name of Nicholas Cole (who is going by Nic).Fil and Adam are doing very well, and Adam has made so much progress since he first arrived. Fil and Cosimo are best friends now! And Adam is very close to Gaya, who is doing a great job making him feel loved. Celestine is slowly beginning to trust Nicholas and I. She really enjoys family time with everyone, and is excited about the all-girls' camping trip we're going to be taking. Seera (as we are calling her - easier for the little ones) is adjusting well. She even helped me cook the supper last night, which was a big step for her. She loves helping with the children, and is excited to be a part of our family. Gaya really loves the snake Saphira too!Mariah is still very depressed about the deaths in her family. She is enjoying being with all the children though, and she has started school already. Again, thank you so much!
