Help[Games] KUY Immigrant Congrats Round 2
Welcome to round 2! It's been five years since your couples had their first child, and they have not been idle. They have had two children in that time (twins or two single children). Your DH has also gotten a new job, and their oldest child has started school. Most recently, however, your family has moved into a new home. The reasons and logistics are up to you. As always, have fun!

Things have been going well for the De Fiore family. First, shortly before Renata's first birthday, Orlando had finally learned enough English to be promoted from delivery man to store clerk, with a fairly decent pay increase. Ginevra also found a new job, teaching English to children at the the same settlement house where they once went. The pay is very little, but Ginevra also still keeps the books for Mr. Doyle. It was taking up little of her time, and she wanted to help out immigrants to came to America in a similar situation as herself. Adamo and Teodora both continued their jobs cleaning the store, still continuing to go to high school. And Pia finally found a place of her own in a boarding house, but she was only there a year before she married. She married an American man named Phillip O'Day, half-Irish and half-French, who often came into the milliner's shop where she worked to pick up things for his mother and sisters. He soon began inventing reasons to come see her, and proposed to her after knowing her six months. Pia, who had fallen in love with him as well, agreed at once, and the two were quietly married in a small church ceremony. Phillip's family, who though they are not Park Avenue are decently well-to-do, were at first against him marrying a penniless immigrant, but Pia's sweetness melted their hearts and they soon couldn't help approving.

It's been five years since Cassius and Godiva welcomed Lucius, and since then much has changed. Another son was born to them two years after the arrival of Lucius, a son named Maximus. Recently, Godiva gave birth to their much longed for daughter, Cassia.
Lucius has begun attending tutor lessons in the hope that he will take over ruling Brittania on behalf of the Emperor once Cassius' age begins to catch up to him. Cassius, in the meantime, is having a hard time keeping the Barbarians at bay, but is no longer participating in battles, as the Empire cannot afford to replace such a skilled general should he die in battle.
The family moved out of their home, into a larger and more luxurious castle, leaving their old home to Agrippina, her son and new husband, Gaius, a soldier under Cassius command.

-Levi (20) (Solomon)
-Aharon (14) (Solomon)
-Michael (20) (Ziva)
-Zipporah (15) (Ziva)
-Emmanuel (14) (Ziva)
It's late 1943, and, because the Nazis have taken over the Netherlands, the David's and their siblings have gone into hiding. It was difficult to find a place that would accommodate ten people, especially with small children, but their gentile friends and the Dutch Resistance were able to. There is a sort of joint attic space between two townhouses in Amsterdam near a canal. It's above both a bakery and a minister's house, and is split level. They even have a source of income to help the people hiding them; Solomon is taking a risk and was able to get a fake identity card so he could work for a doctor. The man is the father of one of the couple who helped them to hide. Because he was studying to be a doctor, Solomon now helps him.
When Adrian was two, Ziva found she was expecting another baby, a little boy they named Daniel Gideon. It was risky, going into hiding with a child who wasn't even two yet, but they planned carefully. Right before they left, they adopted a little girl whose parents had been taken by the Gestapo. Her name is Leah Adara. Ziva has begun teaching Adrian herself, with help from their friends below them, who have young nieces and nephews.

With Midori still living with them there was no way they could stay in their flat so they have moved into a house that is fortunately located close to the school where Jasper is now enrolled. Ianto is now working in the IT department of a large corporation & Toshi got a job working from home as a web designer. Midori still lives in their old flat & helps out with the kids. Jasper loves school & has made many friends but he tends to get in trouble for talking in class. He loves being a big brother & keeps bugging his parents for more little brothers & sisters.

Henry and Violette have been busy in the past five years. Henry was laid off three years ago due to lack of business, but he had saved up enough money to move out West and buy some land. He hadn't planned on becoming a farmer, but he doesn't mind it too much--farming is a simpler lifestyle. It's difficult, but Henry doesn't mind and Violette has found that she enjoys the open space. Junior is five now, and off to school every morning. His younger brother and sister, Shawn and Mandie, are quite the handful.

Pascal and Elias Descoteaux are off to school. In the past five years Lovise had Horace and Kristoffer. So far, she's had no little girls. Lovise loves her little boys, and wouldn't mind having more, though a daughter would be nice.
Three months after Dorothea and Kasper moved in with Ludovic and Lovise, they found a home of their own, and moved their growing family there. Unfortunately, their new home was hours away from the Descoteaux household, defeating much of the purpose of their moving to Austria.
Ludovic and Lovise decided to find a new home which was closer to Dorothea and Kasper than the one they were in at the time. It helped when Ludovic found a better job than the one he had before. Ludovic bought a house just across the street from Dorothea and Kasper's. The house was large enough for a growing family of boys, but it also doubled as a tailor's workshop and a fabric goods store. Ludovic and Lovise could work together while the littlest boys stayed either upstairs where they could be heard or across the street with the littlest children of Dorothea and Kasper.

~~~~
The last five years have been tough for Émile and Clara. Shiri was sick a lot when she was younger and instead of working, Clara had to be home and take care of Shiri. Already scraping their wallets every month, Clara not being able to work was an extra tension in their economy. Michaela wasn't too much help either. She's trying to become an artist and even though she sometimes sells a painting for good money, all that money goes to painting stuff.
But one good thing was that last year, Émile got promoted! Before, he had been piano teacher, but after taking teacher lessons in computer science (they were free since he already worked at a school) he was able to become teacher in computer science. The teacher salary isn't great, but it's better than "just" working as a piano teacher.
Then, just a couple of weeks after Émile was promoted, Clara discovered that she was pregnant, with twins. Japan has serious demographic problems, and if you give birth to twins, you get big grants from the community. Good!
Émile and Clara realised that it would be impossible for six people to fit in their tiny apartment, so they have decided to move out - without Michaela. They are moving outside town - it will take a lot of time for Émile to get to work, but it's the price they'll have to pay. Besides, there's not much street violence outside town, and that feels safer when Shiri is starting school. When she isn't sick, she's doing very good in school.
Michaela will have a hard time making a living when she isn't living with the Durants, but she will try to move in with some friends she've met.
Just like Shiri, Haruto and Keiko are given Japanese FN's and MN's that are easy to pronounce in both French and Swedish.
QUESTION: Will there be any naming rules in this congrats? :)

The last five years have been tough for Émile and Clara. Shiri was sick a lot when she was younger and instead of working, Clara had to be home and take care of Shiri. Already scraping their wallets every month, Clara not being able to work was an extra tension in their economy. Michaela wasn't too much help either. She's trying to become an artist and even though she sometimes sells a painting for good money, all that money goes to painting stuff.
But one good thing was that last year, Émile got promoted! Before, he had been piano teacher, but after taking teacher lessons in computer science (they were free since he already worked at a school) he was able to become teacher in computer science. The teacher salary isn't great, but it's better than "just" working as a piano teacher.

The only rules for now, like I said in the sign-up, will be that the names must fit the time period and the language of either the country of origen or the country they now live in. I may, however ad rules later on.

Country/ies of Origin: Rory is from Ireland. Carlota is from Spain. They now live in the U.S.

DH: Rory Seamus Cavanaugh (29)
DW: Carlota Eliana (Morales) Cavanaugh (27)
DS/DD: Patrick Javier Cavanaugh / Claudia Erin Cavanaugh (5)
DS: Kieran Diego Cavanaugh (3)
DD: Adora Niamh Cavanaugh (1)
Two years after Patrick and Claudia were born, Carlota discovered she was pregnant again. Just in time, Rory got a new and better job as an electrician, which provided the family with a much greater income than his previous job had. This increase in funds allowed Rory and Carlota to purchase a more spacious home in the suburbs. The new home had four bedrooms, which was very good as two years after little Kieran was born, Carlota welcomed daughter Adora into the world. Patrick and Claudia were adjusting well to school, and Rory and Carlota couldn't have been happier with their children and their new life in America.
