Re: BeautifulButterfly's Adoption Agency!
in reply to a message by Renata
Peter Riley and Jack Kasey are identical twins from England. The 8 year old brothers are glued to each other, and one is never seen without the other. Both absolutely love playing baseball. They hope their new family will allow them to play for a team once they get settled. They have never travelled very far outside of their neighborhood, but they have heard plenty of stories from classmates and the other kids living near them. They're excited to travel to America, and they both want to try camping someday.
María Carmen is a 6 year old girl from Mexico. The city she lived in was rather rough, and her mother feared for her safety every day. She was put up for adoption with the hope that a nice American family would adopt her, and raise her away from the violence of her current city. María is terrified of leaving her mother, but she does understand that it's to protect her. Despite knowing both English and Spanish, she a bit shy and doesn't talk much, preferring to communicate with people through drawings and other art. She has a cat, simply named Gato, that she hopes the family will let her keep, and she also hopes she will be allowed to stay in contact with her mother.
Please keep the agency updated on how everyone adjusts!

We were thrilled to welcome Peter, Jack, and María into our home!
We signed Peter and Jack up to play baseball as soon as the season started. They were put on the same team, which they were thrilled about. We have taken them on a few excursions already to broaden their horizons. We are already planning a camping trip for this summer for them.
María was not happy here at first. She rarely spoke, preferring to draw or play with Gato. However, she and Phoebe have become best friends, which has made her much happier. The girls like to do arts and crafts together. We exchange letters with María's mother regularly.
