-Zola Tatiana is a 16 year old mother of Sibyl Jane, who is 3 months old. Zola has black hair and blue eyes and she and Sibyl are from Russia. She enjoys playing her guitar and writing songs, rock climbing, swimming, running, reading, math, and old movies. She doesn't take being a mother lightly and wants to provide for Sibyl the best she can. Zola has an older sister, Milena Feodora who is 21, who she would like to be able to keep in contact with somehow.
Keep the agency updated on how Zola and Sibyl are adjusting.

Dear all,
Thank you so much for finding us Zola and SJ. Our family feels complete since their addition.
The transition has been remarkably easy and Zola has become integrated into our family with startling ease - she's a fantastically friendly girl. She seems to really enjoy being a part of a large family and has taken a shine to her younger siblings. She especially loves to help me with Tilly and Juno so that she can see how I look after them. It's great fun looking after the three little ones with her and we have a great laugh together. It's lovely to have another adult in the house - we won't count Robbie!
Zola and SJ currently stay in the guest accomodation that is attached to our house. They each have their own bedrooms and bathrooms, a spare bedroom (for when Milena or a friend come to stay) and a living/eating/cooking area. This allows Zola to have a lot of freedom so that she can effectively raise SJ by herself but means that we are right next door to help out wherever necessary. Indeed the pair eat with us at mealtimes and spend most of their freetime in our house. Z loves the house and spends a lot of hanging out in the various rooms. I often find her with Robbie (they've become firm friends) in our converted attic music room having a jam session or in our barn where we have inserted our own climbing wall. Either that or taking all the kids to the swimming pool. She's a great big sister, obviously drawing upon the example of her biological sister Milena who stays in France. They chat on the phone every night, email constantly (so Milena can see SJ on the webcam) and Milena comes to stay about once a month, more if she can. She's also great and clearly cares a lot about Zola and indeed the entire family.
