[Games] Re: Adoption Agency
in reply to a message by Ranchie
Elijah and Rebecca, please welcome your new sons and daughters
Aimi is a beautiful and artistic 14 year old from Japan. She also speaks fluent English. Aimi has a love of art and loves to draw and paint. She follows goth culture and loves heavy metal music and dresses in black and dark purples. She loves being creative with her make up and takes great pride in her appearence. She is a straight A student and particularly excels in Maths and Chemistry as well as art obviously. She is used to being an only child and likes to have her own space so it may take a while for Aimi to fully adapt to family life.
Catriona Bree is an Irish 6 year old with a happy go lucky personality. Her passion in life is dancing and she loves all kinds but especially irish as this is her hertitage. Catriona also loves to play dress up and has a desire to try figure skating, but her mother could never afford to take her. She watches a little too much tv and would blossom if given more activities to do. Coming from a very poor family Catriona is a scruffy child and desperately needs a good haircut. She struggles in school and has been seeing an educational psychologist since starting school. It is believed she may have dyslexia, but further tests are needed. Catriona isn't used to eating regularly and has been known to steal food. She needs a loving, warm home and guidance.
Declan Rhys is 4 years old. He is Catriona's cousin. Like Catriona he has had a difficult life so far living in poverty. Given very few opportunities in life Declan cannot yet read or write. He loves to watch tv and eat fish finger sandwiches but does not currently do alot else. He is considerably overweight and would benefit from some outdoor activities. He also has slightly delayed speech. He is a clingy child and prone to tantrums. he needs love with some clear boundaries and educational support.
Alistair James is a 2 year old boy from New Jersery. He is a happy little boy who is inquistive and loves toys that make noise. He has closed book attachment issues so can come across as not bothered about who he is placed with. Alistair has a need for consistent love and attention. He loves Dora the Explorer and Thomas the Tank Engine and he likes to sing to himself.
Please write back and tell us how you're getting on :)

Thank you so much! Our family is now complete with our 4 boys and 4 girls. The family is doing well. Obviously with this many children having thier own rooms is very uncommon even in our large house. However we do have a large furnished basement and when the children all moved in we converted part of it into a bedroom. Aimi still had to share a room with Jenny but there was quite a lot of space down there for just the 2 of them. It tooks some getting used to but Aimi has gotten so used to having Jenny around that she doesn't know what she is going to do when Jenny goes to college in the fall. However, she will be home on breaks and some weekends. We let the girls decorate the basement room and Aimi loved it. Catriona has inspired me to start an Irish dance class where she is my little helper. She loves it. I also have started her in figure skating and she is quite good. We also got her a haircut and took her shopping for new clothes when she arrived. She had a lot of fun. The food stealing has ended as there is no need to do so. Though occasionally if a sibling has something she really wants she is tempted. Unfortunately she is dyslexic but has been seeing the educational psychologist and is determined to read anyway. She is improving. Declan is also seeing the psychologist and a speech therapist. He is improving greatly and has started kindergarten. The tantrums were hard to deal with at first but Ben was very clingy at that age too so we had been through it before. It is subsiding gradually. Adam and Ben have taught him all about sports and he plays in the yard with them a lot more. He is also in swimming lessons. Alistair, whom we call Al, is constantly into things.
