Welcome Alexandra, Dylan, Ziya, Jolan, and Valentin!Alexandra Taylor is a 9-year-old girl from Boston, Massachusetts. She has red hair and green eyes. She was taken away from her parents when it was found that they were abusing her. Alexandra likes writing and watching TV.Dylan Anthony is a 16-year-old boy from Newark, New Jersey. He has brown hair and brown eyes. His parents kicked him out of the house for behavioral problems. Dylan is very temperamental and can be a jerk, but he is a good person at heart. He likes video games and rock music.Ziya Mehmet is a 14-year-old boy from Bursa, Turkey. He has blond hair and light brown eyes. His father was killed fighting rebels in Kurdistan, and his mother died of cancer. Ziya once shattered his leg and he has to walk with crutches. He's also very shy. He likes drawing, reading, and lying out in the sun. Ziya practices Islam, and would like to observe it.Jolan Teodora is a 13-year-old girl from Budapest, Hungary. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She was given up for adoption by her single mother, who was too poor to support her. Her mother would like to contact her and occasionally visit her. Jolan likes music, dancing, and flowers.Valentin Johann is a 6-year-old boy from Ulm, Germany. He has blond hair and blue eyes. His parents have moved to Boston a while ago - until child service agents found out they were abusing him. He is a happy child and likes swimming and drawing. All children know at least some English.

Update...Thanks very much for all the children! Everyone fits in so well with our family, and Garnet is especially happy to have a little brother to lead around and some big sisters to cling on too! Not only that, but she has taken a special liking to Ziya - whenever he goes sunbathing she's always the first out there next to him to keep him company!Alexandra (Andie) is a wonderful addition to our growing family - Andie reads to Garnet and Valentin (Val) every night, and sometimes Jolan (Joey) takes over when Andie is tired.At first, there were some problems with Dylan, but he's doing better all the time. He likes Ziya very much and has sort of taken him under his wing. Dylan also is especially fond of Andie, and takes care of her. Sometimes she has flashbacks to the abuse she suffered with her biological parents, and Dylan is always there with her. Dylan also disclosed to Andie, and then to us, that he was physically abused by his uncle as a child - we think that probably accounts for some of his behavioral issues. Now that he's told us about it, he seems more calm and less angry.Ziya is wonderful - he gets along well with everyone, even though he's quiet. He is very mild and it's nice to have him there to be a sort of peacemaker. There is a Mosque near us and we take him there to worship regularly.Jolan has kept up a correspondence with her mother via email, and they are planning a visit soon!Val is so sweet. He looks up to everyone, especially Garnet and Dylan.Thanks again!
