Help[Games] Re: Smiley Angel Adoption Centre (slightly different to others)

LN: Thornten
H: Nathanael James "Nathan"
W: Katherine Rose "Kate"
AS/AS: Theodore Henry / Harry James "Theo and James"
AD: Lucia Eloisa
AD: Ana Encarnita
Nathan is a calm, even-toned person and I have hardly ever seen him without him looking perfectly groomed, however he is estatic about Theo and James, in fact I think the boys are almost better for him then he is for them. Nathan works most of the day but when he gets home in the evenings he loves to toss around the football with them for a while or just tusseling around on the grass. I think having a father helped them a lot with their confidence that they would no longer be abused.
Though they were rather wary around me in the beginning it didn't take them long to warm up especially as I am at home with them all day (I work as a Editor and while many times I have to go to the office, most of the times I can work at home). Often times they will sit in the study with me while I am working. I soon starting reading the mystery stories aloud to them and explaining which parts I was changing and why. Theo caught on very quickly and enjoyed sitting next to me while I worked, while James was more active not liking to sit for too long would soon be playing with logos or knex. With that in mind I made sure not to spend too much time working in my study and would go out with the boys to walk to the park and started to have them teach me how to play football. That really loosened them up, though James prefers Basketball we had no hoop at the time (though it wasn't long before we got one) so they starting teaching me how to throw and catch and couldn't help laughing at some of my abysmal attempts. It was almost a week after the boys arrived that the girls came.
Lucy and Anne were so adorable! Lucy is so young yet she is mature beyond her age, having had to take care of Anne by herself a lot as their mother struggled to make enough money to get by. It was obvious that Lucy was used to not having much, to not eating much but I made sure she understood that we had enough money that she could eat as much as she wanted. Theo took to little baby Anne, enjoying holding her while he sat on the couch in my study. He would read to her and play with her with almost infinite amounts of patience. Is seemed that as soon as Lucy realized that she didn't have to watch Anne every second that her adventurous nature came out. Soon James and Anne were out running around in the backyard, climbing our tree and digging in the dirt and just playing around. I was okay with that so long they stayed mainly in sight of the window to my study, and I'd open the window so I could hear them.
Nathan was enchanted by the delicate young girls and amazed when Lucy started throwing the foot ball as well as James. And though we've had some rough times since everything is working out great!

It's great to hear how they are getting on, thank you! I am glad to hear they are settling in OK and getting along with each other.
