Re: Your Adoptees
Joanna Madison is an eleven-year-old from Louisiana. She has been shuffled around in foster homes since she was eight, when her parents lost custody of her due to alcoholism and drug abuse. She is very excited but nervous to be moving to a permenant family at last. She likes to write short stories, sing, and act and would like to be an author one day. She is also quite good with animals and has two kittens, Molly and Jolly, both female.Sofia Isabel is a six-year-old girl from Nevada. Her parents recently died in a factory fire, leaving her orphaned with no family to take her in. She is a very outgoing little girl and loves to play dress-up and make-believe. She has a very big imagination. She also likes movies, especially Disney moves, and swings.Jacob Brady is a five-year-old from Pennsylvania. Until recently he has been cared for mostly by his twenty-three year old sister Erin, but when she recently lost her job she was unable to take care of him. Jacob is very sad about this, but when he was told his new parents would let him keep in touch with his big sister he cheered up. He is a very active little boy and loves to play football. He also loves hamsters and has one named Flip.Kendra Imogene is a three-year-old girl from London. She was severely neglected by her parents, and still has some lingering effects from that. She is still underweight and underheight for her age, though she is making progress, and she does not move around as much as she should because malnourishment made her weak. She is a happy child though, and gets along well with other children. She likes playing with dolls and stuffed animals, drawing with crayons, and playing ball.Emily Jade is a two-year-old from New York City. Her nineteen-year-old mother Jessica was recently killed in a car accident, and her only surviving grandparent has cancer and cannot care for her. This grandmother, Lucy, would like to remain in touch with her granddaughter. Emily has just reached the curious stage in her life, where she wants to explore everything. She likes music, especially The Wiggles, and will dance to any music playing. She is also fasinated by dogs and cats and pets of all kinds and needs to be supervised around them, as she has been known to pull on ears and tails.

Two year laterJoanna, Sofia, Jacob, Kendra and Emily are doing very well. Joanna has enrolled in a writing class and her teacher says she is a very promising young writer. Sofia has become great friends with Willow, who loves having a playmate with the same interests. Jacob was the saddest child at first, greatly missing his sister. However, he surprising connected the most with Poppy and Ashley. Poppy reminds him of Erin. Kendra has gained weight and is much healthier. We are grateful that she is better, though she had to spend a month in the hospital. She and Sean are friends now, they are like twins, with Kendra following Sean around everywhere. Emily has become our little ray of sunshine. She is always smiling and is never angry or cross. She loves her big family. Emily is always talking about something new and when ever there is music, Emily is dancing around the house! The pets are also well. Molly and Jolly are finally friendly with Maggie. And none of them have eaten Flip yet! Emily quickly learned to be gentle with the dogs, after an unfortunate incident.Thank You for giving us our lovely children,
Rose, Freddy, Poppy, Lily, Willow, Sean, Ashley, Joanna, Sofia, Jacob, Kendra and Emily
