FAMILY PROFILE
Prospective Parent 1: Maurie Ann Lewis-Harper [35]
Maurie has always wanted a large family. With only one other sibling, a much younger sister, Maurie was alone often as a child. Now that her parents have passed, she’s taken in said sister, having formally adopted her just months ago. She’s an author, writing for the town newspaper as well as penning short stories.
Three Hobbies: Writing, reading, gardening.
Three Character Traits: Patient, creative, loving
Prospective Parent 2: Avalon Sadie Lewis-Harper [36]
Avalon is a triplet. She’s used to being crowded by siblings and noise, and thus is fully supportive of her wife’s dream for a big family. She was married once before, and has a six-year-old daughter and a four-year-old son from this marriage. Avalon is a lawyer, having taken her argumentative skills to the max in her career, and she is very successful.
Three Hobbies: Research, shopping, reading.
Three Character Traits: Strict, persuasive, patient.
Current Children: Maylis Dezia Harper [6]; Gerard Clay Harper [4] ; Aerie Lynn Lewis [15]
Maylis and Gerard are Avalon’s children from her previous marriage; Avalon was able to gain full custody of them. Aerie is Maurie’s younger sister, whom the couple adopted after the death of Maurie’s parents. Aerie is still having trouble adjusting to a new way of life with her sister, but she’s very much a flexible girl.
Three Hobbies: Maylis - reading, cooking (sort of), drawing. Gerard - soccer, making up stories, “helping” his sister in the kitchen. Aerie - volleyball, painting, baking.
Three Character Traits: Maylis - quiet, shy, determined. Gerard - loud, rambunctious, sweet. Aerie - brave, strong (physically and otherwise), creative.
Family Location: New York state, USA.

—children with diseases? No

Meet Genie, Skender, and Pali!
Meet Genevieve Anne “Genie” Lewis-Harper, the newest member of your family! Genie recently turned 13 and she has been in foster care since her grandparents sadly perished in a car crash two years ago. Her birth parents have never really been a part of her life and they finally signed away their rights so she could be adopted. She has always been a bit shy and she will likely take a while to get used to having a new family but she has proved to be fiercely protective of her loved ones and we are sure she will grow to love her new family with time. She enjoys singing and acting and dreams of being a Hollywood star when she grows up. We think her creative tendencies will help fit right in with especially Maurie and Aerie and, while Genie has never been extremely strong in academics, her interest in history will help her connect with Avalon. We are sure she will prove an amazing addition to your family.
Meet Skender and Pali, ten year old twin brothers of Albanian-American descent. The twins recently entered the system when their single mother was imprisoned for a drug offense and signed away her parental rights so they could be adopted. She hopes that an open adoption can be arranged so she can support her boys, but understands that it is a lot to ask and will be extremely thankful to you whatever option your family chooses. For their part, the twins are glad to be going into a more constant family atmosphere and look forward to playing with their new siblings. Being identical, one of their favorite pastimes is pretending to be each other and they do enjoy to tell jokes and pull simple pranks in good fun. In their old school they enjoyed soccer and running and they would like to continue athletic pursuits. We think they will prove themselves supportive and fun big brothers to Maylis and Gerard and we have no doubt that they’ll make their older siblings and parents laugh a little more often.
Please keep us informed during the children’s transition into your household. We would love to hear from you.

Maurie and Avalon are so pleased to welcome these three children into their home! Genie fit in immediately, especially once Aerie realized the other girl's creative spirit. The two girls connected soon enough, due to the recent nature of their loss and general unfamiliarity with their new situation, and have become quite close. So far, Genie has connected with both Maurie and Avalon, though she's a little wary of the younger children.
Skender and Pali very easily took up the mantle of being big brothers. In fact, they seem rather proud of it! Maurie and Avalon were able and willing to arrange an open adoption, being open to the boys' birth mother keeping contact. Aerie's interactions with the twins took an a typical older-sister vibe from the very start, while Gerard almost idolizes the older boys.
These three amazing children are a perfect fit for Maurie and Avalon's family, and they couldn't be happier.
