DH: Luke Jonathan Silva, 47
DW: Jennifer Nicole Silva "Jen", 45
DD: Elisabeth Grace, 21
DS/DS: Grant Luke / Cade O'Brien, 18
DS: Jude Henry, 15
DD: Nathalie Cristina, 12
DD: Faith Alexandra, 10
Adopted DD: Monica Adriana, 10 months
DGrandmother: Cristina Marie
With no more small children in the house, Luke and I discovered that we missed the joys of having a little one around. From hearing their little voices and watching their toddling steps, to reading bedtime stories and playing games, we found that we missed it all. So, because of that, we decided to adopt a beautiful ten-month-old girl from Mexico. Monica Adriana is an absolute angel with brown hair and gorgeous brown eyes. Her favorite companion at the orphange she was at was a puppy dog named Alondra, so we brought her along to join the family as well. Monica is a joy to have in our house, and the kids who are still at home love having her around. Jude, Nathalie, and Faith all are wonderful with the baby, and the girls, Faith, especially, love having a baby sister.
It's funny because Jude, now fifteen, is going through that typical moody teenager time, and although we'd been through it briefly before with our other boys, he seems to have it worse. But what's interesting is that we didn't know really how to deal with it until Monica came to live with us. Monica just has a way of lighting up the room with her smile, and even Jude can't resist picking her up when she raises her arms or playing with her with she wants some attention. She seems to have a way with him and knows just what to do when he isn't in the best of moods.
Nathalie, who is now twelve, and Faith, now ten, are as wonderful as ever. Both girls are phenomenal students who excel in school and are known to be at or near the top of their class. Nathalie is very involved with gymnastics, which she absolutely loves. She's competed in so many different meets and often places in the medal spots. She has medals decorating her entire bedroom :) Faith, on the other hand, is much more interested in music; she loves singing and is enrolled in private lessons, and also sings in the choir at church.
Elisabeth is now twenty-one and is enrolled in college, where she is majoring in English and minoring in Communications. She plans on becoming a high school English teacher, but says she'd also consider a career as a news reporter.
Grant and Cade are now eighteen and are also enrolled in college. Grant has become a lot more outgoing and is also quite a determined young man. He is majoring in law and plans on becoming a lawyer. Cade is still the independent individual he always was and wants to become a police officer.
