Welcome, Evangeline!
Evangeline Hannah is an eight-year-old elective mute from Hartford, Conneticut. She has learning difficulties, anger management issues and chooses not to speak - instead she uses gestures and is learning to use sign language. She has red, curly hair and green eyes. Her mother died when she was five, and her father cannot be traced. She likes stuffed animals, music, cartoons and any animals, especially dogs.
Congratulations on your new arrival, and please update us on Evangeline's progress!

Thanks!
Evie is slowly adjusting into our family. She is having therapy because of her many problems and has already made some progress with her anger management issues. She still refuses to speak, but mainly uses sign language to communicate with us. Evie likes to play with our daughter Reese who is also non-verbal and they have quite similar interests. In the near future we're going to see a therapist who is an elective mutism specialist and we hope that she can help Evie with her communication problems. Evie has been very happy to find out that we have a dog because she loves dogs and has always wanted to have one.

A year has gone by and the kids are all doing well. We have been helping Daisy with her anger management problems and she is getting better with dealing with her anger. Connor is also doing well and he is now not only close with Daisy but also with our other kids. Isabela and Luca are also doing well. Isabela is planing to go to college, but she will live at home so she can see Luca every day. Luca is already very good at English. It's amazing how fast kids learn English. Carmen is doing great and has joined a softball team.
Thank you for these wonderful kids

Welcome Moises, Carlito, Viviana, Fariha, Viktor and Mohammad!
Moises Isandro is eight years old and from Argentina. He comes from a strict Catholic background, and his parents died in a serious car accident when he was younger. Moises is an outgoing boy who loves football, animals and video games, and speaks fluent Spanish. He has a grandfather who lives in Buenos Aires who wants to remain in contact with Moises and his siblings.
Carlito Jesús is also eight years old, and is Moises' triplet brother. He is less outgoing than his brother, and is very intelligent. His interests include reading, classical music and computers.
Viviana Encarnación is the third triplet, sister to Carlito and Moises. She is very girly, and enjoys sewing, art and playing with animals. She adores cats, and collects stuffed animals. She is very easily offended and is very close to Moises.
Fariha Arwa is a thirteen-year-old Lebanese girl. She is a Muslim and is quite shy, but very good-hearted. Her mother was very ill prior to her death, and Fariha was her primary carer for several years. Fariha enjoys cooking, sewing and music. She speaks only Arabic, but picks up languages quickly.
Viktor Danilo is a fifteen-year-old boy from Croatia. He speaks Croatian, English and Spanish, and has Asperger Syndrome. He loves anything to do with cars, and collects model cars. His mother died at his birth, and his father cannot care for him, but would like to keep some contact with his son if possible. He has been raised Roman Catholic.

Thank you!
Moises and Viviana are inseparable, and are doing quite well together. Moises taught the others how to play sports and video games. We also occasionally contact his grandfather.
Carlito said he preferred his middle name, so he goes by Jesus. He is doing well and has been much more outgoing. He gets along with Demetrio quite well and they enjoy each other's company.
Viviana is close to Ema and has learned a lot about sewing. She is also close to Fariha, since Viviana was the only girl in her family. We also got her a new cat, whom she named Esperanza.
Fariha felt like an outcast as a Muslim in a predominantly Catholic country, and felt like she needed to leave Islam to fit in, but we talked her out of it. We looked around the city and found a mosque. She is learning Spanish quickly, but speaks Arabic most of the time. She has made a lot of friends of all different ethnicities and religions.
Viktor has accumulated many more model cars since he came in. He is able to speak Croatian with Ema. Viktor talks to his father on the phone. We are planning a visit to Croatia soon.
Mohammad is doing well. He found Argentina easier to adjust to than Fariha. He enjoys his new siblings and learning from them. He is especially close to Viviana and loves her new cat.

Welcome Victoria, Marija, Paco and Sergio!
Victoria Mary, more commonly called Vicky, is a two-year-old girl from Vermont. Her father died before she was born, and her mother is terminally ill, and has expressed a wish that Victoria be raised in a Christian household. Vicky likes playing with dolls, styling peoples' hair and dancing. Vicky's grandmother would like to stay in contact with her, if possible.
Marija is a nine-year-old girl from Serbia. Her parents were very abusive towards her, so Marija has anxiety problems and seperation issues. However, she gets along well with children, and her interests include clothes, art and collecting stuffed animals. She has limited English, but picks it up easily.
Paco is an eight-year-old boy from Mexico. He was one of triplets, but one of his brothers died in the fire that claimed the life of his parents. Paco is shy and quiet, especially around children, and wears glasses because he is short sighted. He has good English, and loves football.
Sergio is Paco's surving triplet. He is identical to Paco, but is outgoing where his brother is shy. He has scarring on his body and the tops of his arms from the house fire. He loves video games and playing with other boys, though he can be rough if he is not watched carefully.
Congratulations on your four new arrivals! We hope you will be very happy together. Please update us on your adoptees!

Vicky is doing great. She has collected more and more dolls since she came here and loves to style her new older sisters' hair. We are also planning a visit with her grandmother in Vermont soon.
Marija also is thriving. She learned English very fast and she is making progress overcoming her anxiety and separation issues. She also likes to tag along with Alexandria whenever she goes shopping. We let her pick a middle name and she picked Lucy.
Paco and Sergio are great. Paco has started to "come out his shell" a little bit, and is not quite as shy. He is doing very well in school and we recently enrolled him on a football team. Sergio, too, is doing very well, and is quite the social butterfly. Already, he has brought home many new friends and has been on quite a few playdates. He and Oliver love to play video games together, and the two of them have bonded nicely.

Thank you!
Storm and Dax have:
Daniel Bridger, Charis Leona, Vivienne Edith, and Aviva Tacey.
Thank you very much for these three children. It has been a year.
At first, Daniel was confused about having two fathers, but he is getting used to it. He likes that there are two people who will do boy-stuff with him.
We renamed Nevaeh as Vivienne Edith, and we gradually changed her name... We started with Nevaeh, then Vae, then Vivi. She and Charis love playing together, Vivienne really looks up to Charis as her big sister.
And we renamed Yong Xiang as Aviva. Her big sisters like helping us pick clothes out for her. She is beginning to talk-- her first word was 'predy', meaning pretty!

Children (biological or adopted): We had twins who were born 8.5 years ago, both with heart defects. The girl, Dara Vivienne, died just 3 days after their birth. Her brother, Miles Joseph, survived infanthood and eventually got a heart transplant at age 5. He died about a year and a half ago at the age of 7. We are heart-broken to have lost 2 children, but we have decided that we are ready to open our hearts and our homes to more children. We always wanted a house-full, but our difficult journey with the twins made that difficult.

Welcome Simona, Ayuru and Kolya!
Simona is baby girl Romania. Her mother was very young and felt she could not cope with the responsibility of a child. Simona has not developed any interests yet, and cannot speak any language as she is too young, but can of course be taught English. She has swarthy skin and dark hair.
Ayuru is a six-year-old boy who was born in Japan, though has lived most of his life in San Francisco with his aunt so speaks good English. Ayuru's aunt would like to keep in contact with him if possible. He is dyslexic, and his hobbies include sports and playing with his toys.
Kolya is an eight-year-old boy from Russia. He speaks very little English, and loves animals and art. His family died in a car accident when he was younger, and Kolya has some anxiety issues. However, he loves dogs, so he should fit well into your family!
Congratulations on your three new arrivals! Please updates us on your adoptees!

Update +pictures!
We want to thank you so much for the new members of our family. We can't tell you how very happy we all are!
Simona, now a year and a half, is absolutely charming. She is constantly laughing, smiling, and trying to make everyone else laugh. She is hitting all her developmental milestones right on time, and shows no signs of delays. She speaks very well, and loves to sing. We can already tell she is a very imaginative child.
Ayuru is now 7 and enrolled in a private school where he can receive some extra help with his school work. He is in the first grade. While he still struggles some with reading, he is an absolute whiz at math! He's even started learning his multiplication tables! He is on a soccer team, and really enjoys playing. He also loves to play outside, and has made many good friends in our neighborhood. He speaks to his aunt once a week on the phone, and we plan to go visit out in California this fall.
Kolya is a fourth grader at the same school as Ayuru. He is a very bright child, and learned English much more quickly than we imagined. He takes his schoolwork seriously, and really excels in all subjects. He is very shy, but has made a few close friends in school and in the neighborhood. His anxiety issues are still present, but have decreased over the past several months. We enrolled him in counseling early on to help him deal with things from his past that frighten him, and he is making great progress. He is very creative, and is a great artist. He also recently started taking gymnastics, which he loves! He is a great help to both of us in caring for the dogs.
We couldn't have asked for a better family. Thank you again!
