Pete and Hetty were married two months ago. It was a quiet, rather secretive affair. Pete is a supporting actor in an up and coming television series, and Hetty is the author of a wildly popular children's book series. She has written seven books and is working on the eighth, ninth, and tenth. Pete works long hours on a sci-fi/adventure series. It is only in its first season, but is already garnering attention from not only critics, but also the general public.
Pete and Hetty met at a book signing (Pete was getting a few books autographed for his ten-year-old sister, who is a big fan of Hetty's). They "ran into each other" at three of Hetty's next four book signings. Pete finally asked Hetty to meet him for coffee, and she agreed. From there, she visited Pete's set a few times, and he became a regular at her book signing events and other public appearances. After four months of playfully stalking each other, they began officially dating. Three months later, Pete proposed. Hetty accepted, and they were married eight months after that. They decided to keep the wedding quiet and only invited family and very close friends.
Pete and Hetty are living in Pete's two bedroom apartment. Pete is very busy at work, and Hetty spends much of her time writing. Despite their busy schedules, they want to begin a family.
Year 1: Job: Go back to school

Pete and Hetty just celebrated their one year anniversary! Both are doing well. Pete is going to college to get a bachelors degree. He has been acting in television roles since he was sixteen, and has (surprisingly) had pretty steady work. He's decided that he wants a college education, so he enrolled in an online university and is taking courses towards a degree in business--he figures that is most versatile. Hetty is still writing away, working on book eleven of her series. She already has a bachelor's degree in creative writing, and she completely supports Pete's return to school.
Year 2: Birth: Boy T, U or V/I or J
DH: Peter Elwood Morgan "Pete" (curly brown hair, green eyes)(actor)(26)

Pete and Hetty were ecstatic to find out that they were expecting a baby--after all, they've been trying to start a family for just over a year now. Hetty kept working on her books--now numbering thirteen in the series. As the pregnancy progressed, she wrote a few short baby books for their new little one. Pete is still acting (and still on the same show, now in season three). Their son, Timothy James Morgan, whom they call "TJ", was born two weeks early, but is healthy and stable.
Year 3: Adoption: South American girl age 8-9

AD: Sara Isabel Morgan (wavy dark brown hair, brown eyes)(Ecuador)(8)
DS: Timothy James Morgan "TJ" (curly blond hair, blue eyes)(1)
Just after their third wedding anniversary, Pete and Hetty added their names to adoption agencies in a few countries. Both Pete and Hetty have always wanted to adopt children, and they figured, why wait? Just two months later, they were contacted about a little girl in Ecuador, named Sara. Sara was eight years old, but had lived in extreme poverty her entire life. Her parents dropped her off at the orphanage when she was four, and she has been there since that time. Sara was glad to be offered a chance at a new life. She doesn't speak any English, but is quickly learning (and teaching the family Spanish in the process).
Year 4: Adoption: Asian boy age 13

AS: Anuman Kwanchai Morgan (Thailand)(13)
AD: Sara Isabel Morgan (wavy dark brown hair, brown eyes)(Ecuador)(9)
DS: Timothy James Morgan "TJ" (curly blond hair, blue eyes)(2)
Pete and Hetty didn't expect to adopt another child so soon after bringing Sara into the family, but they found that the addition of a young preteen from Thailand was meant to be. When Thai officials contacted the Morgans, Anuman was twelve years and four months old. He would have aged out of the adoption program at the age of thirteen. By the time everything was finalized and Anuman had arrived in America, it was three days before his thirteenth birthday. Anuman speaks some English, but it is heavily accented, and he is most comfortable conversing in Thai. Anuman is glad for the chance to get a good education in America, and he doesn't talk much about his past life in Thailand.
Sara, 9, is nearly adjusted to her new life. She loves playing outside, eating ice cream, and riding her new pink bike. She speaks a good bit of Spanglish, which Pete and Hetty have become adept at deciphering. Even baby TJ has picked up a lot of Sara's linguistic tendencies--baffling his preschool teacher (they were even more surprised when he started saying things in Thai).
Year 5: Birth: boy, Y or Z/K or L

This year, Hetty gave birth to the couple's second biological child, Zachary Lucas Morgan. Zach was born on his due date, a punctual, healthy arrival. All of the older kids were excitedly awaiting the arrival of their newest sibling (Anuman and Sara with enthusiasm equal to 3-year-old TJs).

Pete and Hetty have had a busy year. Pete's television show was cancelled after six years, but he's lined up a variety of guest appearances and has several auditions coming up for more permanent roles. He also figures on two more years at a part-time pace to get his bachelors degree. Hetty (over the past few years) has managed to continue writing books--five more books added to her original series, three stand-alone children's books published, a collection of baby books she wrote for TJ, and two non-fiction books about adoption and parenting children who've already developed their native language skills. Anuman is now fifteen. He is a smart kid, and has worked hard in school. He's going into ninth grade, and is nearly fluent in English too. Sara, 11, had a rough year. She was just getting caught up to age appropriate development when she had a seizure. Two months of testing and six seizures later, doctors diagnosed her with epilepsy and started her on a therapeutic drug regimen. Seven seizures later, and they got the medications right. Now, Sara has been averaging one to two seizures a month for the past three months. She is terrified after having the seizures, and it has really affected her social, emotional, and educational growth. Pete and Hetty have assured her over and over again that they will love and take care of her, even if she is having seizures. They know she is worried that they will abandon her because she isn't healthy anymore. TJ And Zach are good little boys. They adore their older siblings, even if they look nothing alike. TJ speaks a mixture of English, Spanish, and Thai--but he always makes his needs known (and is always asking his older siblings to teach him more words). Zach is just starting to walk. He babbles a word here or there, but is still largely incoherent. He is a happy baby, however.
Year 7: Family Event: Big Birthday Bash

This year, Anuman turned sixteen. In true American fashion, Pete and Hetty threw him a big birthday party with all his friends from school as well as some of their neighbors and relatives. Anuman loved the big party, even if he doesn't think sixteen years of life is such a huge deal. For Anuman, it was more about having people around who care about him and making sure that everyone had a good time.

Dog: Ollie (black lab male)(5 months)
This year, Pete and Hetty got a dog. They figured that the kids would really enjoy having an animal of their own--especially Anuman and Sara, who had daily contact with animals when they were little. Anuman helped "PeteDad" and "HettyMom" (as he calls them) pick out the dog for Sara's thirteenth birthday (another milestone birthday). They also helped name him "Ollie", which fits him well. Sara's seizures still occur occasionally, especially when she's stressed. TJ, six, started first grade this year. His teacher worried at first when he would say a phrase or two in Spanish or Thai, but he's mostly switched to English at school and more of a mixture at home--after all, everybody speaks a bit of all three languages.

Dog: Rosie (brown/white mutt female)(4)
Pete and Hetty didn't intend to get a second dog (after all, Ollie is a bit of a handful), but when a stray dog started hanging out around the set of Pete's latest television endeavor, he fell in love. "Rosie" is a brown and white wiry haired dog who is about medium sized, and attached to Pete at the hip. She goes pretty much everywhere he does--even to work. She sits off to the side while he's shooting, then comes and jumps up in his lap when he's done. She gets along fairly well with Ollie, although Ollie is sometimes a pest.
