Blake Hayden is a thirteen year old boy from Alabama. He's been in the orphanage since he was five when his parents disappeared after going camping in Bermuda. He's not outgoing but not shy either. He loves Drama and does as many plays as he can fit into a year. He also takes on an older brother role to all younger kids and can be overprotective towards them but all children love him for this in return.
Sophie Taylor is a three year old girl from Brazil. She was left at the orphanage as an infant by her mothers parents who were convinced her sixteen year old mother couldn't care for her. She's quite the tomboy and prefers playing in the mud to playing with her dolls. She loves playing outside with the boys and doing karate, as best she can.
Kaden Matthew and Kaleb Micah are thirteen and twelve year old brothers from Florida. Their mother recently died of cancer and their father died when they were six and five in a freak accident while deep sea diving. Kaden is extraordinarily hyper and outgoing. He loves watching football, playing basketball, wrestling his brother and singing in the choir as well as in a band with his friends. Kaleb is more introverted than his brother but still not entirely shy. He prefers playing video games, especially halo and guitar hero, he also likes reading, swimming, and taking photographs of everything he sees.
Please update us on how your children are adjusting to your family.

Adeline Celeste, Adrien Charles, and Anastasie Claire siblings from France. Their mother died shortly after Anastasie was born and their father died a few months ago of an unexpected heart attack. French is their first language, though all the kids speak English quite well. While five-year-old Adeline is much more outgoing than her twin brother Adrien, Anastasie, age 2, is by far the most extroverted of the three. Adeline loves dance and gymnastics and has been doing both since she was little. Adrien is very active and enjoys playing sports, soccer being his favorite. Anastasie is a wild little girl who enjoys copying both her brother and her sister, along with their interests.
Please update us on how your children are adjusting to your family.

All the children are adjusting well. It was a little harder for Adeline and Adrien since they're older, but they're doing very good. Adeline and Adrien have become great friends with my 5-year old son, Henry. At times, Adeline feels left out. My eight-year old daughter, Grace, is having a hard time adjusting to having 3 more siblings. She used to play with Henry all the time and now she feels like Adeline and Adrien have taken over. She's getting better with it, though. Adeline looks up to Grace, which makes Grace very proud. They enjoy playing together. Little Anatasie, who we call Anna, is adjusting the best of all the kids. She enjoys all the attention. She is a big handful, yet adorable. Adrien is best friends with Henry now, but at first he was very shy. He's getting more and more comfortable each day. We signed Adeline up for dance on Mondays and gymnastics one Thursdays. She got Grace into gymnastics as well and now both girls go and love it. Henry was already on a soccer team, so we signed Adrien up to be on his team. He is very happy to have someone he knows on the team. I try to practice my French by speaking it to the kids, but they all laugh at me. I guess I'm not as good as I thought I was =). All the children are doing great on their English, especially Adeline. She is doing so well, she decide to try to teach Grace French. Grace loves learning a new language.
Overall, the children are all adjusting very very well. Thank you!

Alejandro Gabriel and Antonio Estavan are 4 year old twins from Mexico. They have been in and out of foster homes for two years since their mother died when they were two. They are both very happy and bright boys, though Antonio is much more outgoing than Alejandro. Alejandro prefers to spend time indoors, reading, coloring, or playing with his stuffed animals. Antonio prefers to be outside, running around and playing sports.
Starla Kathleen is a 5 year old girl from the USA. Her parents were killed in a car accident about a year and a half ago. Starla sustained major injuries to both her legs in this accident and is now wheelchair bound. Though she is in a wheelchair, Starla maintains a cheerful outlook on life and is a joy to be around. She loves to paint and draw, and even at her young age aspires to be an artist when she grows up.

James and Areena were both so happy to welcome their three new children into their home! It has been almost a year already and the children have adjusted wonderfully. Alejandro really enjoys the playroom in the family's home and gets along really great with little Edmund. Antonio spends most of his time running around with Gabriel riding bikes and swimming. Sabrina and Starla were instant best friends and sisters as soon as they met. They love spending time in the home's art studio painting and making crafts or playing with the large doll house that James made for them!

Adiel Hasanati and Essien Dumaka are 1 1/2 year old twins from the Congo. Their father was never in the picture and their mother died in childbirth. They had been living with their grandmother since they were born, but she passed away a few months ago. Adiel is missing two fingers on her left hand due to an accident that happened shortly before the twins first birthday. Adiel and Essien are both very vibrant children and are practically inseparable from each other. Adiel is your typical little girl, her favorite thing in the world is dolls. Essien loves to run around and be outside.
Please update us on how your children are adjusting to your family.

Update: 1 Year Post-Adoption
Adiel and Essien are bright and thriving 2 1/2 year olds.
Adiel still enjoys playing with dolls, but she is a finger painting prodigy too. In addition to finger painting, she attends weekly occupational therapy sessions to improve dexterity in her left hand.
Essien is perfectly suited for life in upstate New York. He loves tromping through the wintertime snows, adores playing with Honeydew, and always asks to feed the goats.
Both twins have grown accustomed to life in the Beaulieu-Smith home. Grandma and Grandpa, Elodie, Daniel, Vivian, and Eleanor love the twins dearly. Life is hectic with four children ages five and under, but the family wouldn't have it any other way.

Aron Gunnar and Joakim Konrad are brothers from Sweden. They lived with their single mother in a small two-bedroom house. When she died unexpectedly, the boys were left alone in the house until almost a week later. Seven-year-old Aron, though still struggling some with his mother's loss, is a bright and cheerful boy for the most part. He is rather reserved and prefers to be alone with a book than in a large crowd, though he does fine with just a few people around. At two years of age, Joakim is a very active child, always getting into things, and runs around like crazy. Besides being active, Joakim also loves to paint.
Julia Grace is a sweet little one year old from the USA. Her teen mother tried to raise her on her own for awhile, but she decided it was just too stressful without support and had to give Julia up. Julia enjoys dress-up more than anything else, she is always oohing and aahing over anything sparkly and pretty.

Logan Taylor and Jason Daniel are six-year-old twins from the UK. Nobody really knows where they came from, they just randomly showed up one day. They either didn't know their history or refused to talk about it. We assume they didn't have a terrible life, however, as they are very happy boys. They are inseparable from each other and they love to play outdoors, especially sports that involve running.
Taylor Jean is a 16-year-old girl from the UK as well. Her mother died when she was a little girl and her father recently had a heart attack; she had no known family to take her in. She is a very bubbly and outgoing girl. She enjoys fashion and helping people with clothes and makeup.

Mackenzie Connor and Aiden Brooks are brothers from the UK. Their father left them and their mother before Aiden was born; their mother was an addict who, while she stayed clean during her pregnancy, returned to drugs immediately afterward, and was not able to support them. Four-year-old Mackenzie is rather shy, but can be quite crazy when you get to know him. He enjoys looking after his brother and playing with his cars in the dirt. Baby Aiden is just starting to crawl and gets into whatever he can get his hands on.

Malai Kanya is a two year old girl from Thailand. When she was a year old, her house burned down, killing her parents. She is neither shy, nor very outgoing, but is a very loving little girl. She loves the outdoors and everything in it and is almost always found outside, sometimes wandering off without permission. When forced to be indoors, she is content with looking at colorful books and trying to imitate the colors and shapes in her own drawings.
Please update us on how your child is adjusting to your family.

Cloe Anabella, Catalina Araceli, and Cruz Alejandro are five year old triplets from Spain. Their mother was a teenager who wasn't allowed to keep them for personal reasons. They would have been adopted sooner but they didn't want them to be separated and most people didn't want three young kids in the house. Cloe is the most outgoing of the three and is known for walking up to the other kids in the park and forcing them to play with her whether she knows them or not. Catalina or "Cat" is also quite a bubbly young child but not quite as much as her sister. Cruz however is quite shy and reserved, most of his friends are made by his sisters forcing him to play with others. Cloe's favorite thing to do is make up games to play with others, Catalina loves playing "grown up" and pretending to be an adult with kids and whatever random profession she chooses that day, Cruz likes to color and do stuff himself but he also loves playing whatever his sisters ask of him.
Daiki Hayate is a lovable little seven year old from Japan. His parents gave him up when he was two so he could hopefully have a better life than they could offer him. He recently got his Huskie, Yoshi, and has been inseparable from him ever since. He is quite shy and has problems connecting with others which has hindered his chances of being adopted in the past. He has recently shown signs of coming out of his shell a little bit and interacting with other children. Daiki enjoys reading and learning, especially about animals, which is one of the reasons he got Yoshi.
Please update us on how your children are adjusting to your family.

Juliet Coleen is a sixteen year old girl from Florida with a child on the way! She's 5 1/2 months pregnant but has yet to go for an ultrasound because she doesn't want to know the gender, she has however done all the blood work necessary up to this point. She's an aspiring young artist and is quite good at it. She does well in school but needs help with math classes and hopes that even with the child she can still attend college and later do something with art. Her parents died in a plane crash when she was 11 and she is still sensitive about the subject and wary of flying.
Ankita Kali and Anjali Kala are 9 month old twins from India. They both are just starting to stand up and they crawl around everywhere they can. They also are starting to babble but can't quite talk yet. They were left at at the orphanage shortly after they were born because their parents could not afford them.

The children are doing very well!
Juliet become a role model for Lily and Clara. They are still in awe of her. Juliet or Juli, as she likes to be called, is currently taking online classes and art classes at local college. Juli gave birth to a baby boy, whom she named Tristan Paul after her parents, Tristan and Paula. She still doesn't like flying, but is currently seeing a therapist to help work through this fear.
Ankita and Anjali are very happy babies. Their first words were in Hindu, however, they soon began speaking in English, as no one in the family speaks Hindu. Lily and Clara love having baby sisters to play with, and are delighted that they are twins, like them. Lily seems particularly attached to Ankita, while Clara likes Anjali better.
Thank you for these wonderful children.

Sean Aidan is a seventeen year old boy from Ireland with a three year old daughter named Bridget Alannah, who goes by her middle name. Sean was left at the orphanage when he was three. He loves reading and writing, especially poetry. He loves people and being around others. He also loves learning and does well in school and plans to get a scholarship to a good college and go on to be a university or high school teacher.
Alannah was left to him by his mother and neither of them have heard from her since. Sean takes full responsibility for her and does his best to support her. She is in that "going everywhere at once" stage most three year olds are at. She also loves questioning things, playing in the sand and making new friends.
Anastasiya Rose is a vibrant two year old from Bulgaria. She loves any and everything she comes in contact with but so far her favorites are bright colors(especially if its a rainbow), bunny rabbits, kittens, fun looking food and people. Her hobbies are running as far as she can without falling, dancing, walking barefoot through wet grass and playing in the water.

One year later.
Sean and Alannah and Anastasiya are all adjusting very well. Sean graduated highschool and won a scholarship in a writing contest. He starts college this fall. Logan has taken to Sean and loves spending time with him. He even started helping him with Alannah and now he helps out with Anastasiya, Henry, and Piper too. Alannah will be going to preschool this year and Henry, Piper, and Anastasiya will just be starting. Alannah is very excited that they will be going with her. The other kids didn't believe her last year when she said two of her aunts and one of her uncles were starting preschool a year after her. Anastasiya is also loving Lola and Dusty. The kids are all getting along quite well. Thank you for our beautiful children and granddaughter. We are thrilled to have them.

Nataliya Ninel and Ania Kseniya are sisters from Russia. Shortly after baby Nataliya was born, the girls' parents were killed in a car accident that, luckily, the girls were not in. Nataliya is still to young to have developed much of a personality but she is a very lively baby. Ania, age four years, has been slightly depressed since her parents were killed but she is usually a very happy and outgoing girl. She's very girly and enjoys dress-up and playing with her dolls. Ania is fluent in Russian and has been talking since a young age, however, she knows a little English.
Adam Iskandar is a seven year old boy from Saudi Arabia. He was removed from the custody of his single mother because of abuse and neglect at the age of 4 and has been in and out of foster homes since then. He has trust issues with almost everyone which has made it difficult to place him in a permanent home. He struggles in school because of his dyslexia and sometimes requires one-on-one help with his work. Despite his struggles with schoolwork, he is a bright boy and loves to build with anything he can find.

Michael Kayode is a five year old boy from Africa, he came to our orphanage when his parents could no longer afford to properly care for him at the age of 3. He loves drawing and painting most and loves to look others art and critique it. He can be a bit shy and needs help with his English but he loves people and gets along well with everyone.
Tristan Alexzander and Trinity Elise are twelve year old twins from Britain. They're the best of friends and have stayed close since their parents recently died. They have trouble trusting adults but easily befriends those around their age and younger. They both love music and write songs together all the time, Tristan will sing the lyrics while Trinity plays them easily on almost any instrument.
Oliver Cameron is a seventeen year old boy from Britain. He's been in foster care since he was six and spends most of his time outside on his own. He loves most athletic stuff but especially hip hop dancing, which he's quite good at. He also street performs simply for the fun of it and does his best to make others happy.

Update
Michael is adjusting well in our home. Though he has trouble with his English, he seems to love playing with my son Patrick. We are having a teacher come once a week to help him learn better English. I'm sure he will soon be speaking it fluently.
Tristan and Trinity were slow to open up, but have become good friends with my daughter Baylee, which has helped them come out of their shell. They both enjoy the extra school activities. Tristan has joined the school choir and Trinity the school orchestra.
Oliver, not having any other kids his age in the family, has opened more up to my husband. He enjoys playing football in the yard with him and is now on the school football team. We have found out he is a very bright boy and is a joy to be around.

Nikolai is 16, he is quite shy and very overprotective of his sister. He ran away from a bad home at 12 bringing his sister with him and the two stay together always. He loves music with a passion and is a talented pianist, guitarist, and singer.
Addie is 5 years old and loves nothing more than her brother and tries her hardest to be just like him. She loves having her picture taken and taking pictures, especially of animals, she makes friends easily and loves every living thing on this planet.
All of the children speak enough English to understand what is going on and make conversation, although its not a strong point for Kai who has to think a bit harder on what is being said and what to say.
Please update us on how your children are adjusting to your family.
