Re: Bopperlynn's Adoption Agency [up to 10!]

Clarice and Esme are doing well since they found a therapist they both like. The therapist sees them both at the same time, and has helped them be more optimistic. Clarice is also taking an art class after school, and she is excited to be part of painting a mural downtown. Esme joined track, and is going to run in a marathon to raise money for the local children's hospital.
Carmen is also running in the marathon with Esme. She has taken over the care of the goats and chickens, and has named them all too. I don't think we'll be having fresh chicken on the table anymore.
Akamu is a great help in the garden. On the weekends, he usually goes to the lake to go swimming and waterskiing with his friends.
Andrei is always running around in the local woods, and generally takes his sketchbook with him. He looks up to Clarice, who gives him pointers on drawing. Viktor is usually to be found at the pond, fishing for trout. He loved it last year when he got to fish for large salmon in the ocean.
Juliska, Magdalena, Kasia, and Catrin have been working intensively with a therapist. The therapist does not make them talk about their past if they don't want to. Instead, she focuses on the reactions they had to past events. Juliska "Julie" has visibly softened, and has formed a friendship with Esme, though she will sometimes spend long periods of time alone at the pond. Magdalena "Maggie" has started acting like a mentor to Viktor, who reminds her of herself as a child. Kasia plays on the same soccer team as Carmen. Catrin and Maggie are now avowed vegetarians.
We have plans for travelling across country in a year or so. Catrin has already made a list of things she wants to see!
