Please welcome Veronica Clare and Jeremy Walter! Veronica me Jeremy are 4 year old twins from Northwest England. Their birth mother is quite young, and decided she would not be able to give them the life she felt they deserved so she placed them for adoption at birth. They have been bounced between foster homes and state care since then.Veronica is a sweet and bubbly little girl who loves all things art! She enjoys drawing and coloring, and is always eager to share her pictures with anyone around. She also has lots of energy and wants to be a professional footballer when she grows up. Jeremy is the quieter of the two, but he shares his sister's passion for creating pretty pictures! He is very focused and could work on one drawing for a very long time before getting bored. He gets attached quickly and gives fantastic hugs! His language skills are a bit behind, but with a consistent environment in which to learn he will probably catch right up.Please let us know how Veronica and Jeremy are doing in your family!

Veronica and Jeremy - or "Roni" and "Jem" as they have affectionately been nicknamed have settled well into life with the Fentons.Reuben adores playing football in the garden with Roni and we have recently enrolled her onto a local "Little Kickers" scheme for aspiring players aged 3-6.Octavia has bonded very well with Jem, she talks to him loads and always likes to make sure he is okay, taking keen interest in his art work.At school the children have begun Reception and are steadily finding their feet. Roni is a little rough and tumble but her outgoing personality has quickly made her friends.
Being more reserved, Jem has found the school environment a little more daunting. He likes to stay in the art corner where he is comfortable but the teachers are using picture cards to improve his communication and slowly he is coming out of his shell.Our family is full of energy and love. We are already planning loads of holidays around England to go on nature trails and sketching expeditions. In a few months time we will also be hosting our relatives from Hong Kong who are extremely excited to meet the twins.
