We have four kids for you!Lisa Marie [6], Evangeline Samantha [3], Colya Maurice [1], and Laurent Pierre [one month] are siblings. They are all very sweet, bubbly children. Lisa is the big sister, and takes enormous responsibility over her sibs. She loves holding Laurent and Colya (who will probably want to be called Cole, since 'Colya' sounds feminine) and adores Evie. Evie is sweet and likes playing with her hair. Colya is a happy baby who is always laughing and smiling. Laurent is pretty quiet, but doesn't cry much.Please keep us posted!

We have four wonderful kids for you!Jasper Eric [11], Cassia May [9], Felice Janina [5], and Ewan Maxim [2] are all siblings from England. Jasper enjoys singing and wants to be in a choir. Cassia is a tomboy, and really wants to be the first professional female football player. She gets angry very easily, and playing aggressive sports help her let out her energy. She often gets very annoyed with her little sister. Felice is a sweet little girl who just wants a sister who she can play with. She likes playing card games, and is quite the poker shark for a five year old. Ewan is a bubbly bundle of joy, and he is quite fascinated with Felice's long, blond hair. He likes to pull it, but Felice loves him so much she doesn't really mind.Please keep us posted on the kids!

We have two beautiful girls for you!Alessandra Charise [5] and her little sister Melanie Rosabelle [4].
Both girls were born to English parents in Haiti. Their parents both died there a few days after Melanie was born, and since then the two girls have been in an orphanage in Haiti. They are now getting the gist of English, and are excited to have a new family. Melanie can be very agressive at times, and it takes Sandy's gentle nature to calm her. Melanie likes running and is very energetic. Sandy likes dancing and wants to be a ballerina one day.Please keep us posted!

They have a preformance soon and they just got their costumes. Anika has a purple one and Lexi has a white one.

Lane, as we have come to know her, is not settling in as well as he sister. She really enjoys running around with the dogs, and they have been good companions for her. She is slowly learning english but still tries to get away with just speaking kreole.

We have four kids for you!Riley Jacob [16], Caitriona Elodie [15], Emmett Wesley [9], and Christian Fredrick [4] are all siblings from London, England. Cate was raped by her step-father and is very emotional about this. She is quiet most of the time, and would like a bedroom close to Riley's, if that is possible. She is frightened of physical contact, and is only comfortable around Riley. She likes to read and listen to music. Riley is very protective of all of his siblings, though he feels a special bond with Cate because they are the oldest. He was beaten severely by his step-father after he tried to defend Cate and the littler boys. That was only last month. He enjoys being around his sibs, and likes to read to them and sing. Emmett lacks self-confidance because of the verbal abuse he received from his step-father. He is quiet and doesn't like to be alone. His best friend in the whole world was killed in a bus bombing last year, and he is devastated by this. Emmett likes playing the oboe, and also helping take care of his little brother. Chris is a sweet, innocent young boy who is always happy and optimistic. He loves being around adults and misses his mother (who was killed a few months ago) very much. He hasn't yet realized that he will never see her again though. Chris likes singing and dancing, and especially being with his big brothers. Please keep us posted!Edited because I forgot Cate's middle name.

We have two great kids for you!Chelo Dionisio [14] and his little brother Melchor Santos [13] have just moved here from Spain, though they both speak English pretty well. Chelo is very protective of his little brother and they both like hanging out together. Chelo is the father of a two month old baby boy, who is currently living with the mother back in Spain. He would really like to stay in contact with the two of them, and visit as often as possible. Chelo enjoys reading and playing the guitar, at which he is really good. Melchor is sweet and loves musicals. His favorite is 'Hairspray,' and he wants to be in it someday. Please keep us posted, and feel free to apply again (I can dish it out and take it! Lol)

One Year UpdateWell, Andro has gotten a promotion at work--he is now a supervisor at the plant. Thanks to the payraise, we have been able to have two additional bedrooms built on to the back of our house. Guess what comes next... We would appreciate it if another child, a boy between ages thirteen and sixteen, could be placed with us. We would like to take in a child with behavior problems or other emotional disabilities which would make it more difficult for that child to be placed.Chelo and Melchor are doing very well. We went this summer to visit Celo's son and the son's mother, and he has been quite happy since the visit. Of course, it was difficult for him to leave them, but Naiara has promised to send pictures every month. Chelo has been attending public school as a sophomore, and is rapidly progressing in his English skills.Melchor is in the local high school's drama class, and was recently in the school play. He has made one very close friend, another freshman boy named CJ. CJ has helped him a lot in socializing with the other students by teaching him American customs and introducing him to our area's way of life.Both boys, Chelo especially, had difficulty adjusting to Andro and Cerys, as neither are Christian and the boys were raised Catholic, but are learning to respect their religion or lack thereof. Lucas and Chelo get along very well; Chelo is considering a job in an assisted living agency when he grows up.Thank you for such wonderful children!

Congrats!Salathiel Jackson is a fifteen year old boy who watched as his younger sister was beaten to death by his father last year. He is still devastated and speaks very little. He sometimes gets very angry for no apparent reason, and can be somewhat violent. Because of these outbursts, he has been deemed unadoptable. He is really a sweet boy though, and will love to be in a family with so many children. His hobbies include reading, drawing, and writing poetry. Please keep us posted!

Thiel has been a challenge, but he is doing much better. He and Chelo got in a fight a few weeks back, but they are getting along better now, and the tension has decreased dramatically since then. He has been going to a counselor every other week, and they seem to be making progress. Thiel is quite the poet, too--he read one of his poems at the local high school's sophomore variety show. He has had some trouble fitting in at school, but has been accepted by three junior boys, and recently spent the weekend with one of them. Thank you for blessing our family with three wonderful sons.
