HelpCongrats Hopkins Family!
in reply to a message by YMPvt
Congrats Asya, Sasha, Mitya and Rada! Please welcome Agnessa, Zoya, Violetta and Innokentiy into your family!
Agnessa Nadya, Zoya Oksana and Violetta Polina are 8 year old triplets from Russia. Agnessa, who sometimes goes by Aggie or Nessa, loves everything flowers. Zoya is into learning about other cultures, and is thrilled to be moving to America where she can live in a totally different culture. Violetta is athletic. She is happy that she will have a brother around her age to play with. None of the girls speak English, although Zoya knows a few basic words.
Innokentiy Aleksey is a 5 year old boy from Russia. He is thrilled to be getting an older brother. Innokentiy, who goes by Kenya, enjoys music.
Please update us on how Agnessa, Zoya, Violetta and Kenya are doing!

All of the children are settling in quite well.
Agnessa has learned quite a bit of English, as she has befriended another neighborhood girl of the same age. They spend tons of time together and often make things. I've lost track of the number of times she has come home with a crown of wild flowers. She is home schooling for a little while along with Zoya and Violetta while her English improves.
Zoya has adjusted much faster than we expected, she spends much of her time reading childrens books about other countries and has taken an interest in spending time with our Chinese next door neighbors, now she is learning Chinese and English at the same time.
Violetta is having a bit more trouble, but she and Mitya have become fairly close. She plays sports with the neighborhood boys, but hasn't made many good friends. She is joining an official rec-league soccer team soon so she she meet someone there. Her biggest issue is trouble with English so it should pass as her speaking gets better.
Kenya has truely become a little brother to Mitya, he speaks very good English and is always pestering Mitya to teach him how to do something or to build something with legos and he and Rada often play. He and Violetta are turning her into a little sports queen.
Thank you so much!
