ABOUT THE FAMILY

Parent #1
Full Name: Adeline Josepha Harrison (nee Ross)
Age: 36
Brief Bio: Adeline is a stay-at-home mom who loves her kids. Like, a lot. She’s very involved at the church, and at her kids’ schools, and is rather proud of this fact. When she was a teenager, she was a bit of a wild child, and so understands and is perfectly willing to empathize with teen mothers.

Parent #2
Full Name: Josiah Richard Harrison
Age: 38
Brief Bio: Josiah is a banker, and makes quite enough money for his little family. He loves his kids, though he wishes he could spend more time with them, and makes an effort to be with them as much as he can. He too is involved at church.

Current children
Names: Alexis Brady Harrison, Mason Alexander Harrison, and James Lucas Harrison
Ages: 19, 14, 10
Brief Bio: Alexis, the eldest, is in her second year of college; she attends a local school and still lives at home. She’s a bit of a tomboy, playing softball and riding a motorcycle (which makes her mother nervous). Alexis is studying engineering. Mason, 14, is the middle child, and your average high school freshman. He too plays sports (basketball) and prefers being out with his friends to hanging out at home. James, the youngest, is a sweet kid. He loves to help his mother around the house, and is starting to develop an interest in music.

Lottie and Matt!Please welcome Lottie and Matt, siblings from the United Kingdom. Lottie's full name is Charlotte Grace; Matt's full name is Matthew Thomas. Lottie is 14 and pregnant; we do not yet know the gender. Matt is 10; he is a lovely young man and is very helpful. The siblings both speak fluent English and they are Christian. The reason for Lottie's adoption is that when she became pregnant, her parents just wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible. Matt came with her because he couldn't bare to live with the people who did that to his sister. Lottie and Matt have always wanted to live in the States so they can't wait to meet their new family. Hopefully they will all get on, especially Mason and James because they are the same ages as Lottie and Matt. Please keep us updated about how Lottie is doing with her pregnancy, and how Matt is settling in.

The Harrison family is very pleased to welcome Lottie and Matt into their home! Adeline immediately sympathized with Lottie, and quickly fell to taking care of the young girl. Matt gets along well with James, and the two boys spend all their time together. So far, Lottie is doing well; no complications have arisen and the family is looking forward to meeting the new baby when he/she arrives. Lottie and Matt are also settling in well in church, the members of which accepted them right away. While Lottie did not start school due to her pregnancy, Matt did, and so far he's doing well. It took him a while to get used to the new setup, but he's gotten past that now.
