Thank you so much for giving us more great kids!

Chauncey is a great help to me, and the other children simply adore her. She has bonded with Francesca, and Francesca has started speaking to her - if only a few words.

Cosimo is a handful, but he gets along well with his siblings. He has been doing better in school, and received a 'school citizenship' award because he is so loyal to his new friends. I am not a diligant Catholic, but Cosimo and Nicholas have been going to church together, along with a few of the other children.

Gaya is a joy! She gets along well with everyone, and is so sweet! She opens up to me, and even told me all about a boy she met at school! It has also been a great learning experience for all the children, Nicholas, and myself. She has been teaching us about Hindu. I was a bit worried that Cosimo might not like it, but he listens and asks questions just like the rest of us.

Yesterday, we all went for a hike and had a lovely time! Chauncey carried Finley on her back - he adores her!

Thanks again!
