Re: Summer's Adoption Agency
We have found three children for you.Caolan Sean [17] and his daughter Kayla Sorcha [2.5]
Caolan is a teenage father from Ireland. Caolan had a relationship with a woman who eventually gave birth to Kayla and then dumped her on him and left. Caolan almost gave her up right away to adoption as he has been in the foster care system since he was 8. But he decided that he wanted to be with her. This has been difficult for him and he has played more of the big brother rule to Kayla as his foster parents helped raise her well. Caolan loves sports and loves to hike around. At school, he excells in literature but has had many problems with math- partly due to that he has had no one to help him individually on this. Kayla is a beautiful girl who already speaks and is just learning to read! She loves to color and play outsied and she adores animals!
PhotobucketKlara Viktoriya [11]
Klara is an eleven-year-old girl who has been abandoned just recently at an orphanage in the Ukraine. Prior to her abandonment, she was physically abused by her father. She is quite an angry girl- we expect due to this treatment. She does seem to lighten up around younger children here though. We believe that she may have or have had younger siblings- she doesn't talk about this though. School wise, Klara has never attended school and does not know how to read or write. She has been beginning the very basics since she came here. She will need theapy once she is adopted.
PhotobucketMakar Vadim [4 months]
Makar is a little baby from Russia who has Down Syndrome. He is a wide-eyed baby who loves to watch people. He has a heart problem, however, it can be corrected with surgery. He was given up by his parents because they did not want him with his disorder.

UpdateCaolan is terrific. We adored all the children right from the start. He and Ryan became friends right at sight.He's on the soccer team and has a scholarship in literature for the same school Ryan is attending. Everyone over the age of 18 in our family has helped him with his math and he's doing much better. As for Kayla we allow her to be Coalan's daughter but we spoil her as our own. In fact the other day we bought her a kitten without Caolan's consent which she proudly named Princess.We have been sending Klara to thearapy since she was settled in as we have been homeschooling her as well. She has been a huge help with Kayla, Peyton,and Makar(who we nicknamed Mac.) She seems to have a better time trusting people than she did when she was sent here, but you can still see the hurt in her eye's sometimes. Larry and Ryan seem to bond with her well as Ryan's parent were abusive and Larry's former wife had been.As for little Mac we are getting the surgury done as soon as we get the money(which should be in about 4 months). He is the sweetest boy we know and we can't wait to watch him grow.Thank you so much. We honestly couldn't love these children more if they were our own.
