Dear Mr. and Mrs. Winter,Thank you for your interest in the Time Travel Adoption Agency. We have been lucky enough to find siblings for you to adopt. We believe that they will be good additions to your family and good siblings to Christabel and Polly.
The Barta children, from left to right, are: Violet Amelia, age 9; Emil Richard, age 7; and Helen Louise, age 4. They hail from the year 1913. Violet is as shy as her namesake, but just as sweet. She is nearly deaf and due to the quality of the school she and her brother attended, she has not had enough individual attention to be caught up with other girls her age. However, you will find that she is a quick study and very perceptive. Her brother, Emil, is quite protective of her and very much considers himself the man of the family. He loves playing stickball, but he does so while keeping an eye out on his sisters. And little Helen cannot wait to go to school. She loves to look at picture books on the rare opportunities that she has the chance; otherwise, she is fond of playing on the steps of their building.The Barta children are without a home after their parents were killed in separate factory accidents. For this reason, it is important that we are able to fit them with a new parent or parents as soon as possible. Thank you for your generous offer to consider taking them in. All of our potential adoptees understand that they may be requested to go by new names in their new lives and are not averse to the possibility, though we at the Time Travel Adoption Agency recommend that a new parent or parents keep at least some vestiges of their old names.Sincerely yours,
Arraya LightP.S. After having the children a few months, should you indeed confirm your adoption, we would be delighted to receive a letter in return; it is important for us to follow up on our charges and see if the children are adjusting to their vastly different ways of life.

Dear Arraya Light, Thank you so much for the Barta children. We have altered their names to Emmett Bartholomew (to honor his previous surname, Barta), and Helena Margaret; we have chosen to keep Violet's name the same. It has been one year since the adoption. Helena is now in school and has adjusted beautifully. She looks forward to kindergarten every day and has made several new friends! Emmett, now in the third grade, is also doing well. His favorite subject is science and he loves explaining how things work to us. Violet has really grown since we adopted her. While at first, she was extremely shy and hesitant, since we enrolled her in a school for the deaf, she has really come out of her shell. Now, there's always a smile on her face. She's in fifth grade now, and has shown quite a talent for art. Hopefully by next year she'll be able to attend public school. Christabel (now 4) and Polly (now 1) are delighted with their new siblings. Christabel especially looks up to Helena. It's very sweet. Violet and Emmett dote on the younger children, and are teaching Polly how to talk, use silverware, use the potty, etc. And now there's a new surprise! In three months, Emmett will have a new baby brother to play with. He is extremely excited, as are the other children. Polly is looking forward to not being the youngest anymore. We gave Violet and Emmett the task of choosing a name off a list and they chose Sebastian George. Thank you, Time Travel Adoption Agency, for our new children!- Ursula, Isaac, Christabel, Polly, Violet, Emmett, Helena, and soon-to-be Sebastian Winter
