Welcome Kathleen, Cameron, and Molly Kathleen Elizabeth May is a three year old girl from Canada. She has brown hair and brown eyes. Her parents abused her brother, sister, and her and so Kathleen and her siblings were played up for adoption. Kathleen is still emotionally scarred from her past and often has nightmares. Kathleen likes dogs, dolls, and coloring. Cameron Michael Lukas is a five year old boy from Canada. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. He is Kathleen's brother so he was given up for the same reason. Cameron is also scarred from his past and needs therapy. He often throws tanturms. Cameron likes bikes, trucks, and going outside. Molly Marlene Jasmine is a six year old girl from Canada. She has brown hair and light brown eyes. She is Kathleen's sister and was given up for the same reason. Molly got the worse of the abuse so she is the most emotionally damanged. She also needs therapy like her siblings. Molly is happy to be going to a new family, but is also scared. Molly loves reading, coloring, and dolls It would be wonderful to hear how the kids are doing

Thank you so much for these wonderful kids!One year on, all three children have been attending therapy and are making great progress. Molly and Cameron have started school, and Kathleen will be starting kindergarten soon. Their teachers are pleased with them, especially with Molly, who has shown a particular flare for English.Kathleen is getting along well with our dogs, and we also got a new one - a chihuahua which we allowed her to name, and she called it Buster. Her therapy sessions have helped to reduce her nightmares, and the therapist is delighted with her progress.We bought the kids bicycles, and Cameron has been using his every moment of the day! His tantrums are reducing slowly and he has made lots of friends. Cameron has joined a local soccer club and will be going to sports camp this summer.Molly was quite nervous at first, but after a while she is beginning to open up to us. She is doing very well at school and has made several close friends. Molly likes to help out around the house, and has formed a friendship with our niece Caitlin.Thank you again! They have made our family complete!

Antonio likes kid, bikes, and baseball. Carlos Jose and Isabela Carmen are 14 year old fraternal twins. They have brown hair and black eyes.

Thank you!Antonio was upset that his girlfriend left him, but he is happy now. He enjoys his daughter, whom he named Yesenia Mariana. Antonio plays with her all the time. Yesenia seems to enjoy Daniel's company.The twins are doing great. They both joined the school baseball team. At first, they were unwilling to accept Isabela, but then they let her in. They have a game coming up.

Wecome Lucia Lucia Kathleen is a eight year old girl with autism. She has blond hair and light brown eyes. Her parents gave her up when she was born with autism and Lucia has never met them. Lucia is a sweet and caring girl. Lucy enjoys hugging, tv, and movies. Please tell us how Lucia is doing
vote up1
Lucia is doing great. She seems to have high-functioning autism, and has an above average IQ and very good memory. We have talked with some autism specialists and they say that Lucy has quite good social skills for an autistic child. She goes to normal school with some special arrangements. She does academically well but have some difficulties in making close friendships because of her autism. Because Lucy loves movies we bought her a DVD player so she can watch her favorite movies in her room.
