-Reina Thamina is a 14 year old girl from Argentina. She loves going to museums and playing chess. Her favorite sports are soccer, handball, and rugby. She has been in gymnastiques since she was brought to our agency [she was 2]. One day she hopes to make it into the olympics and win a gold medal. She is outgoing and will put forth her best effort in anything she does.
-Amir Habib is a 12 year old Jewish boy from Israel. He speaks Hebrew, English, French, and Arabic. His birthday is in 13 days and he wants to have a traditional bar mitzvah. He is, however, nervous that he might get married young [in theory, a boy who reaches 13 or a girl who reaches 12 are, in the Jewish religion, old enough to be married]. He likes to draw, skateboard, travel, and he plays the piano and violin. He is a little shy but loves to be around people.
-Bisera Nevena is a 16 year old from the Republic of Macedonia. She only speaks Macedonian, Albanian, and ASL [her foster family in America had a mute and deaf boy from Macedonia she was friends with]. She writes the most amazing poetry and short stories you'll ever hear. She likes to play basketball, tennis, and also likes to sail. She practices Islam [meaning she's Muslim] and, like Amir, would like to keep praticing her religion. She would like to have an arranged marriage with a man of your choice when she comes of age, as it is customary in her religion.

Shane Lachlan and Justice Honore are 2 week old twins from Ireland. Their parents couldn't support children and wanted the twins to have the best life they could. They would like to keep in touch with Shane and Justice when they are older. They don't care if it's only through mail, as long as they can be a part of their lives. Please keep us updated on the children.
2 year update and 2nd application
Shane and Justice couldn't be more precious to us! We love having these 'terrible twos' running around our house. Shane has dark auburn hair and brown eyes and Justice has bright curly red hair, freckles and brown eyes. Shane is quite energetic, always playing race cars or army. Justice is more quiet, prefering to cuddle with mommy more than playing with Shane or with her babies. We send photos of the twins to their birthparents-Jon and Caotrina, about every six months. We've told the twins that they have another mum and dad who are letting us take care of them because they loved them so much. They don't know we've sent them pictures and we'd like to keep it that way for a bit.
Bruland and I decided we'd like to try an older child, maybe between 5-11. Actually, Bruland would love a boy and I would love two more girls. Maybe of Eastern European, Indian or Arabic descent. Or maybe one of each! Sib sets are great, twins are too. But we would love to take in best friends, cousins, neighbors, whatever ones who wouldn't usually get to stay together.
Thank you!

Nadya Yekaterina, Artur Borya, and Faina Marianna are from Russia. Nadya and Artur lived in the same apartment builing. Faina is Nadya's cousin, who was living with them after her parents died. All three children ended up in a Russian orphanage after someone set fire to their building. They woke up and managed to get out. Nadya's parents and younger brother died in the fire and Artur's parents didn't survive either.
-Nadya is 10. She loves the arts: art, music, literature, dancing. She takes dance lessons and would like to continue. She is very outgoing and extremely smart.
-Artur is 11. He likes to play almost any sport, except for rugby, hockey, and football (American). He is laid-back and wise beyond his years.
-Faina is 7. She likes to dance, sing, act, and play almost anything with friends. She is very shy.
Both girls speak fluent English because Nadya's mom was American and Faina has lived with them for years. Artur speaks hardly any English [he learned a little from Nadya and her mother], but the girls would be more than happy to translate.

16 month update and last application
What a difference three kids can make to a family! When we heard these kids would be ours, Bruland and I flew to Russia to meet them. We found them just as you had described but realized we needed a bigger home. While the paper work was in process, we frantically looked and found the perfect house. It has several bonus rooms that we can section off into private bedrooms as the need arises. It is also on about two acres of property so the kids can play.
Nadya and Bruland immediatly hit it off, they go to museums, symphony's, ballet's, everything, together. She is enrolled in Jazz, Tap and Ballet classes and does very well. All the time Nadya spends with Bruland tends to upset Artur; whom we now call Arthur so he fits in better with the American kids at school. He is very protective of Nadya and Faina (at school she is called Fiona). Both girls have been working hard at getting him to pick up English, but he can be stubborn at times. He plays hockey now and will join a summer football league soon. Faina is very shy but seems to like Justice alot. She was recently in our community theatre's production of Annie and she had a blast! We are sure she will do many more shows as the years progress.
As a mommy, I am having a baby craving; my youngest are 4 and I want more babies in the house. We thought it would be a good idea to open our home to a pregnant girl who has nowhere else to go. Also, if there are infants no one else wants (physically deformed, victim of rape or unwanted pregnancies) we would love to have them. Our new house has plenty of room, so we will take any number you will give us.
Thank you soooo much, our kids are adapting wonderfully and you have done an excellent job placing them.

-Octavia Efimia is 16 and from Greece. She speaks fluent English, Polish, and Yoruba [African language; she speaks Greek also]. She was raped by a stranger who broke into her house. She is having a baby in about a month [she doesn't know the gender or haves names picked out]. She likes to swim, ride horses, and she's a wonderful dancer [before she was pregnant].
-Susan Daniella and Sandra Deborah are two week old twins from Arizona (USA). Their parents did not want a baby but neither parent thought abortion was right.
Please keep us updated.

Octavia is the most beautiful girl we've seen. Her baby, lucky enough, looks just like her: Lukas Androon has fair blonde hair and white blue eyes just like his mummy. When he was born, Octavia cried and cried saying over and over how glad she was he didn't look like 'him'. Now that Lukas is older, Octavia has taken up dancing again and actually helps teach one of Faina's classes. Those two have become quite close.
Susa and Sanny, as we call Susan and Sandra, were very small and having a hard time when we first took them home. Because they had lived in the nursery at the hospital, they didn't get all the love they needed. They were very healthy, sure, but they need someone to lovingly care for them. Now they are both healthy, happy, well-loved babies who are just beginning to walk. Artur is particularlly fond of them, often taking them for walks or playing peek-a-boo.
And then, Surprise! After admitting long ago that any kids we got would be adopted, I became pregnant! Roxanna Joy was born about three months ago and I believe our family is now complete.
Thank you so much for all the support your agency has provided, our family is so awesome thanks to you.
Love,
Bruland, Moira, Octavia, Artur, Nadya, Shane, Justice, Faina, Susa, Sanny, Lukas and Roxanna

-Elizabeth Ann, Richard Joseph, and Courtnee Estelle are 4 year old triplets from England. Elizabeth likes to play with dolls, house, and play a few sports. Richard likes almost any sport there is. He likes basketball a lot but he gets fustrated that he's too short. Courtnee likes to read [or pretend she's reading], play soccer, and look at the stars. Both girls are in dance and Richard likes to build model cars. All three would like to stick to their hobbies. Please keep us updated on these three beautiful children.
Elizabeth, Richard and Courtnee seem to be very happy with their new home. Elizabeth and Richard play sports together at times and sometimes get Courtnee to play, though she usually plays with her dolls. Courtnee and Elizebeth are both getting better and better at dance. When we watch the girls dance in lessons Richard builds model cars on the floor. They are absolutly wonderful children.

-Carolina Raye is a 6 year old girl from California (USA). She needs a bone marrow transplant because she has leukaemia. When she's not too weak from chemo, she likes to swim, play dress up, and watch over her little brother.
-Craig Ronald is Carolina's 1 year old brother. He has no real interests yet.

update and another application (surprise!! :)
Thank you so much for blessing us with these kids!
Carrie and Iva have bonded, especially since they are both fighting battles. Carrie has started chemo again, and is often weak and tired. Craig is such a joy! He is lovely to have around, and the girls love him! We have an inground pool, so Carrie gets to swim all the time. Unfortunately, she is tired much of the time.
I would like to apply again, the same as before. Again, children with terminal illnesses are very welcome in our home!

-Sara Ariana is a 12 year old girl from Ireland. She was hit by a car last year and had a total body shut-down [she needed liver, kidney, and heart transplants]. She got all her transplants, but her body is rejecting her liver again. She'll need another transplant within the next month if she has any hope of survival. She might need counseling. She is often tired and weak, but finds time to practice her hobbies [singing, painting, playing piano and violin, and dancing]. She is very worried and afraid about dying, but reassure her that she'll be fine [her doctor said there are only 2 more people in the head of the line for a kidney so it shouldn't be long].
-Sorin Imre is Sara's 2 year old brother. He has a slight speech impediment that can be easily corrected by a speech therapist. He is very shy and too young to understand what is going on with his sister. He is very good at cheering his sister up, though, when he realizes something is wrong. He likes to play with soccer balls but has no real hobbies yet.

Thank you again for blessing our lives!
Sara is so sweet and we all love her very much. She actually really looks up to Carrie and Iva because of how brave they are. I think that living with them has strengthened her a little. She is so good at the violin, and at the piano too! We have gotten her counseling, and decided to do the same for the other girls. Sorin is so sweet! He does love those soccer balls, and Andrew is going to teach him soccer when he gets older. Thank you again!
We would like to adopt one more little girl. We would love to care for a child who is very ill, and will provide her with the care and love she needs!

Lunella Renee is a 4 year old girl from Romania and has been with the agency since birth. She was born with spina bifida [technically a split spine] and is a paraplegic [paralyzed from waist down] with no hope of ever walking. She is at constant risk for pneumonia which can be extremely fatal to her fragile body. She also has Acute Porphyria [extreme sensitivity to light] and it severly effects her nervous system. In order to live, she has to avoid all sunlight (no going outside or going in any room with windows unless they are appropriatly covered). Light from bulbs doesn't hurt her. This disease is very painful and will most likely die if in direct contact of the sunlight. During her life she is at risk for all the following: constant abdominal pain and vomiting, seizures, and mental disturbances [including: hallucinations, depression, and paranoia]. Her heart beats are irregular and much slower than normal. She needs constant medical care.

Thank you so much for blessing our lives!
Luna, as we have taken to calling her, is such a sweet girl! We have gotten a live-in nurse for her (she helps when the other children need it too) and she is in a dark room all the time.
We had quite a scare a few months ago when we took her in for surgery on her spine. She fell into a coma for almost a week! It was so sad, because we thought she had no hope. Thankfully, the wonderful doctors were able to revive her!
The girls and the boys have taken to her, and they are like peas in a pod. Those three girls bring lots of games into Luna's room and they play all sorts of things!
Unfortunately, Luna has developed pneumonia. She is in the hospital now, and in good hands. We are there with her almost all the time. The doctor says she should be all right for now, but our prayers are with her.
Sara and Carrie too are in the hospital right now. We decided to get it all over with together, and Sara really needs her liver transplant. Carrie is also getting a transplant, though of bone marrow.
Please keep all of our kids in your prayers, and thank you again!

Abraham Faris, Abilene Farah, and Atarah Faiza are 3 week old triplets from Saudi Arabia. Language barriers will be non-existant. Their parents, originally from America, were both devout Catholics and gave their babies biblical first names and Arabic middle names. Atarah seems to have some problems hearing things, as she is slow to respond to surrounding sounds. Abilene was the smallest of the three and suffers from respiratory problems [nothing serious, she'll most likely have minor asthma when she gets older]. Please keep us updated on Abraham, Abilene, and Atarah.
