Welcome Brandy, Cedric, Sidney, Janis, and RaidenBrandy Maureen is 17 and is 3 months pregnant with her second child. Her first child, a son, Hunter Jace, is 18 months old. She was recently found on the street, working as a prostitute and has been under the care of our program since then. However, she says the baby she is currently pregnant with is her 21-year-old boyfriend’s child. She enjoys dancing and watching reality TV, and of course, playing with Hunter.Cedric Laurence and Sidney Clare are 5 year old twin boys. Their parents were no longer financially able to care for them, and thus gave them up. They both love going to school. Cedric likes drawing and math, and Sidney likes building things out of legos and telling stories. Janis Veronica is a 1 year old girl. She was being cared for by her older sister, but she doesn't feel capable of taking care of her anymore. She is a bit developmentally behind, she is just learning to talk. Raiden Cooper is a newborn baby boy. His parents abandoned him at a hospital when he was 3 days old. Please update us on these children!

Welcome Jillian, Hector, Beckett, Marisol, Cole, Sky, Harper,Jillian Vanessa is 16 years old and 5 months pregnant with her first child (a boy). She left home when she found out she was pregnant. Her parents reported her missing, but when the police brought her back, she told her parents she was expecting her boyfriend’s baby and it would be half-Mexican, and they told the police to keep her. She loves skiing, yoga, and Sudoku.
Jillian’s boy friend is Hector Carlos and he ran away with Jillian when she told him she was pregnant. The police brought him back at the same time, and his parents told the police to keep him as well. He loves chess, making his own movies, and taking apart and rebuilding electronic devices. He is very excited to be having a son. Beckett Noll is a 16 year old boy. He ran away from home, and when he came back, his parents signed off their parental rights, not wanting a “delinquent”. He’s very quirky, and likes dumpster diving, beatboxing, skateboarding, and hula hooping. Marisol Eve is 15 years old and pregnant with her first child. Her parents kicked her out of the house when she told them she was pregnant, and she spent weeks living at various friends’ houses, until one of their parents became concerned. She likes designing and making her own clothing and playing cards (her favorite card game is poker). Cole Lindsey is a 15 year old boy. He despises his middle name and wants to change it. He was emotionally abused as a child, and has been in foster care for several years now. He still acts out and has a lot of anger issues. He likes drawing elaborate images and camping.

Welcome Miri, Jaclyn, Jasmyn, and MatteoAnn Miriam Pauletta “Miri” is 14 years old and has been in foster care since she was ten. She is very independent and artistic. She makes a lot of her own clothing and loves to paint and draw. She likes the name Miriam, but not her other names and would love to change them to something more fun. Jaclyn Rose and Jasmyn Marie are 12 year old identical twins. About a year ago, their parents simply didn’t pick them up from school and couldn’t be found anywhere. They’ve been in foster care since and now need a permanent home. They love doing things together; they both like jumping rope, shopping, and (secretly) playing with dolls. Matteo Alexandre is 6 years old. He was living with his grandmother and then she passed away and he has no other family to live with. He is very sensitive and shy; he doesn’t talk very much. He likes baseball and toy cars. Please update us on these kids!

Thank you so much for our wonderful children. It has been a year since they came to us and everything has been amazing.Miri enrolled in school here and is doing exeptional. She has found many friends who share her same love for art. She spends almost all her time either painting or with friends. After much deliberation, Miri decided to change her name to Miriam Andrea Christine. She loves it, but still just goes by Miri.Jaclyn and Jasmyn are also doing well. They love to go shopping and Margot loves to go along (it makes her feel like one of the "big girls"). They are both doing well in school. Though they still feel best with each other, they have both found activities that they enjoy. Jaclyn has started up dance and cannot wait for her recital. Jasmyn is now invoved with choir in school and has a beautiful voice.Little Matty has come out of his shell quite a bit; in a house full of girls he has to! Laurent especially loves having a son. They play outside for hours. Matty started school this year, and it was a little rough, but he soon progressed. He is picking up French the best out of all of the new children and it brings him imense pride.A lot has happened in a year, but it has all been fantastic. I look forward to adopting from you again.Thank you: Evie, Laurent, Miri, Jaclyn, Jasmyn, Margot, Fifi and Matteo.

Welcome Alexzander, Xzavier, and GracenAlexzander Jay and Xzavier Ray are 3 year old twin boys.

Welcome August, Shiloh, and SuriFirst, to answer your questions: If the kid has a stupid name, can we change it? I won't stop you. Some people think it's okay to change an adopted child's name, and some don't. If you're okay with it, why not? How could a 5-year-old be pregnant? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lina_Medina August Storm is a 5 year old boy. His parents had expected to be able to provide a good life for him, and were devastated when they couldn’t. They decided he deserved better and put him up for adoption. He loves going to school, swimming, and riding bikes. Shiloh Nouvel Jolie and Suri Kate Noelle are 1 year old twin girls. Their mother was arrested for stalking Tom Cruise and she signed away her parental rights. They are both very outgoing little girls and they babble a lot. Shiloh is already walking, but Suri isn’t yet. Please update us on how these kids are doing.

Welcome Amy, Chuck, Pansy, and Noah!Amy Marguerite is 16 year old girl with a newborn daughter, Sophia Tacey. Amy’s father walked out on her family when she was four, and her mother died when she was seven. She’s been in various foster homes since then. She doesn’t talk about who fathered her daughter, and we believe that Sophia may be the product of an abusive relationship. Amy would like to finish school, but isn’t sure about her future beyond that. She enjoys reading and singing (in private, she has no desire to perform), and during her pregnancy, she took to reading lots of cook books, so she’d like to learn how to cook. Charles WilliamChuck” is a 9 year old boy, and his sister, Pansy Elise, is 4 years old. They were found wandering the streets a few months ago, and their parents cannot be found. Chuck has some difficulty hearing in one ear, but otherwise, the children seem healthy, but a bit shaken—we don’t know how long they were on the streets. Both of them like watching TV. Chuck likes storytelling, and Pansy likes puppets. Noah Macaiden is 6 years old and was removed from his home (along with his little sister) because his parents were physically and emotionally abusive to them. His sister, Jaycee, 2, was adopted by another family (Note: Jaycee was adopted by Sugar). Noah doesn’t trust adults because of his parent’s actions. He likes being outside and climbing trees. Please update us on how these kids are doing!

Welcome Mekhi and Jaycee!Mekhi Luka is a 4 year old boy. He was living with his grandparents, but they became unable to take care of him and put him up for adoption, but they would still like to be able to see him sometimes. He likes toy trucks and cars and making ‘music’ with household objects. He looks forward to starting kindergarten next year. Jaycee Nevayah is a 2 year old girl. Her parents had been physically and emotionally abusive to her and her older brother, and they were removed from their home. Her brother, Noah, is 6, and being adopted by a different family [note: Noah will be adopted by RubyMay92].

AD: Joy-Celina "Jaycee" (3)A year has passed since Jaycee and Mekhi joined our family. It has been so wonderful and we would like to thank you so much for the children.Mekhi when we first got him was a little shy, a little quiet, but we hoped he would open up more. About a month afterwards, I put some music on and Mekhi just loved it. He started to talk about the music and hasn't stopped. He just started to take piano lessons, we were a little worried they would be too hard on him (he's only five), but he comes home and wishes the lesson lasted longer. And he loves kindergarten, he's in the same class as Nico.We kept Mekhi's name partly because we liked it, but also because we think he was already pretty used to it. We weren't particulary happy with Jaycee's name (especially Nevayah). But we did think "Jaycee" would be a cute nn, as long as she had a different full name, she is now Joy-Celina, and when she's older she can go by whatever she wants. Our Jaycee was very lively from the moment we got her; she could very happy and bubbly one moment and crying hysterics the other. We took her to the doctor, and she is a little behind developmently, but she's catching up fast (she's in therapy). She just started talking.We love having four children. Mekhi, Nico and Mia are so close in age, which is wonderful, they play together a lot. Jaycee is the baby of our family, and everyone takes care of her. It is a joy having all of them. Thank you!

Zayden likes doing magic tricks and playing with his little brother. Dax likes building block, K’Nex, Legos, anything where he can build with. Gabriel Anthony is a newborn baby boy.

Now, she joins drama class in school, where she proved a fantastic actress and set painter. Last week, she starred as Ophelia in Hamlet.Zayden is doing very well. He has became a favourite in his class, dissapearing coins and producing doves from the air.Dex is also very happy. He still builds with stuff, but his real hobby started when he began stacking Zayden's cards into a model of your orphanage.Gabriel is our priceless treasure. Lavinia is very touched by his daily smiles and affectionate gestures. Gabe's mother still visits once in a while, and was thrilled to see him.Thank you! We wouldn't have been happier.

Welcome Floyd, Kyle, Kelly, Niamh, Jenny, Jagger, Matteo, and ZaniyaFloyd Mitchell is a 15 year old boy. Recently, his girlfriend gave birth to a daughter, Ginger Rae, and then gave Floyd the baby as she broke up with him, saying she didn’t want to take care of it. Floyd likes designing and building models of buildings, and of course, playing with his little girl. Kyle Sterling and Kelly Ashton are 13 year old twin boys. Their parents died recently in a car accident and both of them are taking it very badly and have been acting out. Kyle is more withdrawn, however. Kelly likes biking and football, Kyle likes playing piano and baseball. They both like board games, but neither will admit it (board games are too childish to them). Niamh Mackenzie is an 11 year old girl. She’s been taking care of her mother, who had cancer, for several months, causing her to miss a lot of school. CPS checked on the situation, and removed her from the home. Her mother passed away not long after that and Niamh thinks it’s her fault. She likes to cook and yoga.
Jennifer BreeJenny” is 9 years old, and her little brother, Jagger Zayne, is 3. They were removed from their home about a year ago due to neglect. Jenny likes puzzles, coloring, and soccer. Jagger likes playing soccer with his big sister and building blocks. Matteo Alexandre is 6 years old. He was living with his grandmother and then she passed away and he has no other family to live with. He is very sensitive and shy; he doesn’t talk very much. He likes baseball and toy cars.

A few weeks later, her mother signed away her parental rights, choosing her boyfriend over her daughter. Princess is traumatized over the events and will need a lot of help adjusting to a new home. She likes picking flowers and being read to. Maverick Rylan is a 2 year old boy. His mother, who was 17 when she had him, thought she could care for him on her own, but just before his first birthday, decided he’d be better off with someone else. He likes running and making lots of noise. Please update us on how these kids are doing in about a year!

Welcome Helen, Walter, Clark, Enid, Doyle, Priscilla, and Junior.Helen Olivia is 10 years old, Walter Lamar is 7 years old, Clark Homer is 5 years old, Enid Cecelia is 3 years old, and Doyle Abraham is 1 year old. They are all siblings. Their mother abandoned them only a few months after Doyle was born. Because Helen was taking care of all of them, we thought it was best if they all stay together. Helen likes to read, Walter likes basketball, Clark likes dump trucks, Enid likes dolls, Doyle cries a lot, and all of them love coloring. Priscilla Avery is 5 years old. Her parents were unable to provide the life they wanted her to have, and thusly gave her up, hoping she’d end up with someone who could. She is very shy and withdrawn. She likes to write stories and chase after butterflies. Junior Jack Daniel is 5 months old. He was born with fetal alcohol syndrome; however, he hasn’t seemed to show many problems yet, except that he cries a lot more than normal, and for no reason. He was taken out of his mothers care at 2 months old. Please update us on how these children are doing.

Thank you for these wonderful children. A year has gone by and everyone is doing well. Helen still loves to read and has a higher reading level than anyone in her class. Walter has recently joined a children's basketball team. Clark loves to play with his brothers who are around the same age and now they all like dump trunks. Enid also loves to play with her new sisters who also love dolls. Now that Doyle is two he does not cry as often and is a playful child who loves cars. Priscilla is still child, but she is less shy than she was before. She still loves to write stories and wants to be an author when she grows up. Priscilla's birth parents have visited her a few times over the year and they talk on the phone about once a week After we adopted Junior we took a class to learn more about Fetal alcohol syndrome so we could help him now and when he gets older. He does weight less than normal children at his age because of Fetal alcohol syndrome. We have also recently changed his name to Daniel Jack. Thank you for these wonderful kids
