Bio: Gaia was born in Tygelsjö just outside Malmö, Sweden as the oldest of five. With both her parents working on farm she often took care of her younger siblings. After graduating high school she decided to try her luck abroad and moved to New York where she studied interior design. That's where she met Jamie Dunn, two years her senior. She had barely graduated with her bachelor degree in interior design when she found out she was expecting. Jamie stepped up and the two got married before Lola was born, two months early after a complicated birth that left Gaia infertile.

Meet Linnea Agnes and Louis Enzo.Linnea is an 11-year-old girl from Sweden. She has autism (semi-high functioning; she talks and comprehends amazingly but has social issues) and her parents decided they didn't have the energy or the financial resources to help her and placed her in an adoption agency when she was 7. She loves the academics - especially reading and math - and is already working at a college level. She is an atheist and speaks English and Swedish.Louis is a 9-year-old boy from France. He has Down syndrome and his parents didn't want a disabled child because they felt he would only be a burden on them so they placed him in an adoption agency as soon as he was ready to leave the hospital. He struggles immensely in school, and has the brain function of the average kindergartener, but is a happy creative soul. He speaks English and French, and is an atheist.Please keep us informed about how they are doing.
