Parent #1
Name: Esti Amaia Aldana
Age: 28
Brief Bio: Esti runs cheap language classes for adults, especially immigrants and refugees, in the back of Màiri's shop. She grew up in the Basque country, speaking both Basque and Spanish. She discovered her passion for languages and by the time she left university (with a degree in teaching ESL) she was fluent in English, French and Arabic, then learnt Dutch, Mandarin and some Persian. She grew up in a large family, with 5 siblings, and since moving out to Scotland she's missed having them around her all the time, although the 7 years she's been with Màiri have been some of her best. She's planning to propose to Màiri sometime soon, as soon as she works up the nerve!Parent #2
Name: Màiri Rhona Mclean
Age: 27
Brief Bio: Màiri, always an avid reader, runs a bookshop, selling everything from kid's fiction to political memoirs. She grew up on Iona, in the Hebrides, speaking Scots Gaelic and English to her father and using BSL with her mother, who lost her hearing in an accident ages 4. She did exceptionally in school, and graduated from the same university as Esti with a degree in Linguistics and fluency in French and Spanish. She was an only child, but always longed for a sibling when she was little. Unbeknownst to Esti, Màiri's also planning to propose!What languages does the family speak? Both speak English, French, and Spanish
What religion does the family practice? Neither practice any religion; Màiri was raised Presbyterian, but stopped practicing when she moved outPreferred number of children: 2, but they're flexible
Gender preference: None
Age preference: Toddlers, but they'd also be happy to adopt older kids who've been in the agency for years
Language preference: English, French or Spanish
Will you accept/would you prefer:
--siblings? Definitely - they'd hate to see siblings split up
--multiples? Again, they'd hate to see them serparates
--children with disabilities/illnesses? To an extent - they'd both love to adopt disabled kids, but they live in a flat above Màiri's shop, and don't really have the money for modifications or expensive treatments
--pregnant teens/teen parents? Yes - Esti's mother was 17 when she had her first childOther preferences/thoughts/comments: Nope, other than that this is a really cool concept!
