It has been three years since the adoption.
Liam is now in the 2nd grade and is very popular. He and Ben are in the same class and there is definitely some competition between them! Since arriving in America, he has discovered a love for sports, especially baseball and basketball. We've taken him to Knicks and Yankees games and he has a blast! He's been enrolled in an after-school baseball team, which Gabrielle is also in (it's co-ed). He and his sisters are very playful and get along wonderfully with the rest of the family.
Fanny Annie has had a name change. We compiled a list of our favorite names and let her pick her own off the list; she chose Lucinda Elspeth. Lucy, as we call her, is now in kindergarten and makes friends easily. She is well liked by her teachers as well and fits in well here. We have started her in ballet lessons, which she loves.
Moa is now 3 years old and loves to play with blocks, color, and sing. She will be enrolled in voice lessons soon. Moa, Theo, and Horatio (renaming) are growing up happily together.
Signe is now 15 and asked to change her first name to Sylvie after pronunciation issues became annoying. She is a freshman in high school and very popular. She has joined the local Lutheran youth group and found a very sweet boyfriend there named Josiah. We have been impressed with the quality of her writing and so have her English teachers; she makes straight As in literature/writing classes. We're very proud of this girl!
Zlatan has had a name change, making Zlatan his middle name so that he will not have the same problems Sylvie has had. His new first name is Horatio. He loves to play with his siblings and loves being picked up and twirled in the air. Horatio has inherited all of Ben's old toys and is very happy about this.
Thank you so much for these lovely children!
