The girls have settled into their new home wonderfully.

---

Avery, who now goes by Ana, is a very happy 7-year-old. She skipped first grade, so she is now in 3rd grade. She helps all her classmates learn and we think we have a future teacher in the family! She loves to be outdoors, and Nicholas built a treehouse for her in the backyard. She takes dance classes 3 days a week and is excelling.

---

Lucie is now 5 years old, and in kindergarten. She is in the after-school drama club and loves performing on stage. She is still our little demanding drama queen, but loves cuddling with her sisters on the couch.

---

Terri and Mari (who now go by Lauren and Marie) are 3 years old and in preschool. They are the most confident in their class, and have an excellent vocabulary. So far, Lauren shares Ana's smarts, and Marie shares Lucie's love of dance - Ana is teaching Lauren math, and Marie puts on shows with Lucie around the house.

Thank you so much for these four wonderful girls!
