Help[Games] Re: Mar's Adoption Agency
in reply to a message by luvmonkeezz
You're welcoming home Kiri Netana. She's a 13 year old girl from Auckland, New Zealand. She's the youngest of 7 children and she was the only girl. With six older brothers she got bullied a lot. Her mother wasn't up to the task of protecting her daughter and her father never really bothered to make an effort in raising his children properly.
Kiri ran away several times during her childhood. She always came back home, but wanted nothing more than to get away from her family and the life she was leading.
When she was twelve she ran away again, but unfortunately she ran into a wrong guy who abused her and had tried to keep her locked up in his house. She managed to escape after three days.
She returned to her house, only to discover that it had been burnt down to the ground. There had apparently been a leak in a gas pipe and one night the house had blown up with her sleeping family still inside.
Kiri was brought to an orphanage to await replacement in a new family. She had another nasty shock about four months after her family's death; she was pregnant. She had been feeling very miserable and sick for a while, but she had always thought it was because she had lost her family and was grieving. She really did not want to have a baby by the man that had abused her, but she had found out too late to have an abortion. As if this wasn't enough, she was told she was expecting twins.
Kiri really wanted to be adopted by someone who would adopt her children as her siblings, so she still has some chance to be a child herself.
She had the twins right before moving in with your family. She had two boys and wants your input on their names. She'd like to have them a four letter name, just like her and is considering: Cole, Dane, Drew, Leif, Gage, Jake, Rafe, Reid or Sage. But nothing is set in stone yet.
Kiri is a tough girl. She is good at heart, but can get really nasty if you push her. She gets angry quickly and never seems to be really calm. She'll need help to deal with all she's been through. She's looking forward to being a part of a family with people that actually like each other and care about one another. She is a little bit afraid about having another big brother, but she's glad she won't be the youngest in the family.
The babies are only about a week old. The first baby seems to be a little louder and more expressive than the other, while the second baby seems to be more of a thinker, since he's mostly quiet, but in an observant way.
Please inform us on how they are all adjusting to life with your family!

It has been a year now since Kiri and the twins came to live with us and all three have adjusted quite well.
Kiri is doing great. She struggled a bit when she first came to be with us, always on guard, especially toward Jason and Ian, and she was a bit wary of me as well. Even though she didn't get along with her family, losing them all in such a terrible way truly affected her miserably and on top of that having just given birth, she developed a bit of depression. We had her in counseling for a while and were able to get her help and some medication and she is doing much better now. Though it took a while, she has developed a better relationship with both Jason and Ian. Through her counseling sessions, she was able to work through her trust issues and actually get to know them better.
Kiri, Em, and Gisette on the other hand were fast friends. Kiri was thrilled to have sisters, especially so close in age, since she grew up with only brothers. Em and Gisette were happy to welcome her into their 'sisterhood' and I believe Kiri's friendship with them has really helped her a lot. While she is still tough, she has softened a bit and isn't quite as hostile as she was when she first came to live with us. Because all our kids are close, Em and Gisette have helped her in learning how to not see Jason as a threat like her older brothers and this has helped her relationship with him and Nate.
Kiri, Ian, and I discussed names for the twins, finally deciding upon Cole Lachlan and Sage Alistair. Cole is by far the louder and more outgoing and active of the two. He started walking first, at just 9 months, and within a month of his first steps he was nearly running. He is quite mischievous and gets into everything. He loves to be up and about and hardly ever wants to sit still. He enjoys being outside and playing. He talks all the time, well babbles anyway, and he's never shy about letting you know what he wants. Sage is much more quiet than his twin. He's very laid back and compliant. He walks nearly as well as his brother, but he prefers to sit and look at books, do puzzles, color, or play with toys. Despite their polar opposite personalities, the boys get along surprisingly well and enjoy each others company.
