Hello, Mrs. and Mrs. Adler! You'll be adopting sisters Esme Florence and Phoebe Imogen. Phoebe is 6, and Esme is 2. They have lived in foster care for the past year after their mother's arrest, and she has offered them up for adoption. When she does get out of jail in seven years (when Phoebe and Esme are 13 and 9), she will be allowed to visit them on special occasions (such as holidays and their birthdays). Phoebe has had a rough time adjusting to everything and will need extra care. She is shy at first, but be gentle and patient and she will open up to you. Esme is naturally bubbly and chatty and will not need quite as much help as her sister, but don't take that to mean she needs less attention. She is still very young, and it's important she forms strong bonds with you.
Good luck, and please keep us updated with how they are doing in their new home!

Hello! Thank you for matching us with Phoebe and Esme; they are the perfect fit for our family. Phoebe has become best friends with our daughter, Miriam, almost immediately, and Esme is in love with the cats. We have started Phoebe in first grade at the local school, and while she seemed stressed by it at first, she seems to be settling in. There are lovely teachers there who take into account her rough early years while helping her. We've enrolled Esme for two days a week at the preschool Miriam attends, and she comes home every day exhausted but full of news about her new friends, arms piled high with art projects. It will take a little more work before they're totally settled and comfy with us, of course, but all in all we are very happy with our new daughters. Thanks again!
Mrs. and Mrs. Adler
