[Games] Welcome Helen, Walter, Clark, Enid, Doyle, Priscilla, and Junior.
Helen Olivia is 10 years old, Walter Lamar is 7 years old, Clark Homer is 5 years old, Enid Cecelia is 3 years old, and Doyle Abraham is 1 year old. They are all siblings. Their mother abandoned them only a few months after Doyle was born. Because Helen was taking care of all of them, we thought it was best if they all stay together. Helen likes to read, Walter likes basketball, Clark likes dump trucks, Enid likes dolls, Doyle cries a lot, and all of them love coloring. Priscilla Avery is 5 years old. Her parents were unable to provide the life they wanted her to have, and thusly gave her up, hoping she’d end up with someone who could. She is very shy and withdrawn. She likes to write stories and chase after butterflies. Junior Jack Daniel is 5 months old. He was born with fetal alcohol syndrome; however, he hasn’t seemed to show many problems yet, except that he cries a lot more than normal, and for no reason. He was taken out of his mothers care at 2 months old. Please update us on how these children are doing.

Thank you for these wonderful children. A year has gone by and everyone is doing well. Helen still loves to read and has a higher reading level than anyone in her class. Walter has recently joined a children's basketball team. Clark loves to play with his brothers who are around the same age and now they all like dump trunks. Enid also loves to play with her new sisters who also love dolls. Now that Doyle is two he does not cry as often and is a playful child who loves cars. Priscilla is still child, but she is less shy than she was before. She still loves to write stories and wants to be an author when she grows up. Priscilla's birth parents have visited her a few times over the year and they talk on the phone about once a week After we adopted Junior we took a class to learn more about Fetal alcohol syndrome so we could help him now and when he gets older. He does weight less than normal children at his age because of Fetal alcohol syndrome. We have also recently changed his name to Daniel Jack. Thank you for these wonderful kids
