Ayodele Chausiku is a one month old girl from Madagascar (Africa). Her village was ravaged by wildfires and her parents were among the ones who didn't make it. Ayodele has a distant aunt, Simisola Oluwafunmilayo "Lola" aged 27,who is living in England, and Lola's family, if one day Ayodele would like to contact them.
Please let us know how Ayodele adjusts.

The Davids
DW: Ella Maria (37)
DH: Simon Nicholas (39)
DS: Leolin Simon (8)
DD: Miriam Jeanne (4)
DD: Ayodele Chausiku Louise (1)
DCousin: Valerie Anne Dupont (21)
--DS: Aaron Carl (3)
Exactly a year has passed since our family adopted Ayodele Chausiku. We have kept her first name, partly because we think it sounds beautiful, and also because we have found out it means "Joy has come home", which is exactly the way we felt when she arrived. Her nickname is Ayo, but she's also called Ayo-Joy in the family. We added Louise to her name, which next to Miriam and Jeanne is my favorite girl's name.
Ayo-Joy, Miriam and Aaron are all within three years of each other, and they enjoy playing together so much. Leolin, who is 8, is usually the ringleader and likes to decide what they all will do. But it's Miri who enjoys playing with Ayo the most, she likes to be the big sister for her.
Valerie speaks French to Ayo; we are hoping she will be able to speak it when she grows up so she can communicate with her Aunt Lola, who has visited us once already.
Thank you so much for completing our family!
