Welcome Alessandro, Dante, Matthias, and Osman Alessandro Cosma is a fifteen year old teen father from Italy. He has dark blond hair and gray eyes. His parents died three years ago and Alessandra had been in foster care with his little brother. A year ago Alessandro's girl friend gave birth to a baby girl they named Alessa. Only a few weeks after taking care of the baby she left Alessa with him and never came back. Alessandra is quite responsible for his age. ALessandro likes cooking, watching tv, and hanging out with his one year old daughter. Dante Edmondo is a thirteen year old boy from Italy. He has light brown hair and green eyes. He is Alessandra's little brother so he is in foster care for the same reason his brother is. Dante is outgoing and loves having fun. Dante likes skating, riding bikes, and playing video games. Matthias Silas is a twelve year old boy from Greece. His has dark brown hair and brown eyes. Matt has been in foster care for two years since his parents could not take care of him. They would still like to be able to contact him sometimes. Matt is shy but is very bright. Matt likes reading, watching tv, and movies. Osman Umut is a eleven year old boy from Turkey. He has tan skin, dark hair and dark eyes. His parents gave him up for adoption because they no longer had the money to take care of him. Osman and his parents would still like to be able to contact each other. Osman is bold and somewhat outspoken. Osman likes sports, hanging with friends, and tv. It would be great to hear how the boys are doing

Thank you so much!It's been a while.Alessandro and Alessa are inseparable. They do everything they can together. He also spends time with Matthias and Osman.Dante is often aloof from the other boys, since he has very different interests, but tags along with our girls. Despite his typical masculine interests, he is the only one who doesn't mind going to the mall - as long as he can check out the video game department :D.Matthias and Osman had antipathy towards each other at first, due to historic Greek-Turkish rivalry, but we successfully convinced them that it's been many years since that time and they should be friends instead.Matthias contacts his parents semi-regularly, and he has become more outgoing. We are going to visit his hometown in a few months.Osman had the hardest time settling in. His opinions are quite strong, and can be quite extreme when he is upset. and we couldn't find a mosque. So we bought him a prayer rug and put it in his room. He contacts his parents once a month.
