Welcome Stian, Landon, and Daniela MontserratStian is a ten year old boy from Vejle, Denmark. He has epilepsy but is a wonderful boy.

He is short for his age, with messy sandy blonde hair, and hazel eyes. He is a sweetheart.Landon is a 9 year old boy from Santa Cruz, California. He is very much the California boy; he loves swimming and already knows how to surf. when he's not surfing the waves, he's surfing concrete on his skateboard. Despite his laidback attitude, Landon cares a lot for his grades and excels in science class, even though he could do better in math. he has wavy brown hair, bright brown eyes, and an everpresent smile. Daniela Monsterrat is from the capital of Spain, Madrid. She is very much the drama queen. she loves anything from broadway shows to silver screen hits. however, she doesn't approve of Twilight. She prefers Stephen King and Ann Rice's books. Her dyslexia is sometimes a problem for her, and she also has a mild case of depression that hits sporadically. In a way to cope with this, "Monty" likes to watch her favorite movies, Breakfast at Tiffany's and The Breakfast Club. She speaks fluent Spanish and English and hopes to learn French and Italian. She has straight light brown hair, and hazel eyes; she is a very unique girl.Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they're settling in. Have a good evening!

Hey, up here!Well, everybody's settling in fine, although the house seems to have shrunk some. We had a Japanese horror movie fest a few nights ago (Piers's idea). Nobody knew what they were saying, but we went with it. Violet continues to paint. We have a hard time trying to fit her supplies in the house. She was in the garage til Lenard discovered you could no longer walk around in there without turning purple or yellow or whatever color she was experementing with that week. Meanwhile, Alfie continues to run track and, in his first driver's ed lesson, into lamp posts. We still haven't figured out what a lorrie is.

Welcome Alfie, Piers, and Violet!Alfie, Piers and Violet are 15 year old triplets that hail from Liverpool, England.Alfie, the 'oldest' of them, is incredibly extroverted; he usually likes to take the lead and do all the talking. When not around his siblings, he is very athletic and enjoys participating in many different sports. He earns top marks in his physical education classes, and usually brings home first place or second in athletic competitions, especially in track and field. But he is also very studious and hopes to pursue a career in law or politics.Piers, the 'second' born, is quite different than Alfie; he is more introverted and prefers not to lead others, but he isn't a follower either. Piers would rather stay indoors watching a foreign film or reading indie literature. He enjoys his coffee as well, but although he seems like he wouldn't have any interest in anything but things that aren't mainstream but Piers is quite the motorcross fanatic. He also loves dirtbike riding and he is quite talented.Violet, the baby of the three, is somewhat of a mixture of her two brothers. She is very artistic but also doesn't mind taking the lead and being very sociable. Violet loves painting and anything to do with artistic expression. she loves using oil pastels as well. She is fearless, and loves participating in karaoke, not afraid of laughing at herself once in a while. She also enjoys reading and though slightly embarrassed, she loves the Harry Potter books. She can also be quiet and guarded at times, but only when there are authoraties.Alfie is lean and muscular, with messy dirty blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Piers is taller than him and thinner, with shaggy chestnut brown hair and the same blue eyes. Violet has the same wavy brown hair as Piers but is shorter than Alfie or Piers. Her eyes are a shade of violet-blue, hence where she got her name. Congratulations on your newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in. Have a great day!

Ddog: Ellylon (1)It’s been one year, and the kids are doing well. Ellylon and Pallas, our two dogs, have become quite the pair. Ellylon was just only a few months old when she first arrived with Siarl, but she’s grown up quite a bit—and, thankfully, no longer digs up our gardens! Alexei and Evander have really bonded. They read together every night before bed, and are currently in the middle of the first book in the Redwall series. Alexei started first grade this year and is really enjoying it. He’s learning to read and write in English and does tutoring at school to help with that. We’re all impressed with how well he’s picking it up. Siarl is picking up English easily because he’s so young, and is becoming very talkative. He’s quite the handful, though, always into something! We can get him to sit still for activities like painting, but even then he has to be watched so he doesn’t make a mess. We’ve put up most of his paintings in his bedroom—it’s getting quite colorful in there. Mireille already spoke some English when she came to live with us, and now she’s nearly fluent. She reads all the time, and we have quite a job getting her to stop. She’ll read anything she can get her hands on. She also loves ballet class, which we enrolled her in, and is learning a lot. Thank you for these wonderful children. It’s hard to imagine life now without them!

Welcome Remi, Lucia Rocio & Ixchel, and AryaRemi is a fourteen year old boy from Paris, France. He is an avid athlete, enjoying tennis, cross country/track, soccer, any sport. He also likes watching movies and taking care of the younger children here at the agency. He is talkative and quite the entertainer. He performs magic tricks for the younger children, and usually the leader of talent shows.

He is such a joy to the agency.Lucia Rocio and Ixchel are sisters from Mar de Plata, Argentina. Lucia Rocio is 12 years old, while her sister Ixchel is only seven.

She also cares deeply for animals and is torn between becoming a veterinarian or an artist when she grows up. Ixchel is more of the logical of the two sisters; she is quiet and reserved but she can hold her own on intelligent conversations. She prefers the bustle of the city while Lucia Rocio likes nature. Despite her usual mature demeanor, Ixchel always has to have her little doll that her mother gave her. She says she wants to become a doctor to help people. Lucia Rocio is tall and has auburn hair and fair skin with light brown eyes while Ixchel is short, with caramel skin and dark wavy hair and brown eyes to match. they are opposites in looks and personality, but love each other dearly.Arya is a 6 year old from Rajasthan, India. She is not quite talkative but once she gets going, she wont stop. She is very interested in not only her culture, but many cultures of the world. She speaks English, as well as her native Indian and expresses want to learn more languages. Arya likes learning about countries and has a very humanitarian side to her. She has such a bright personality that shines through. She likes playing in the water and going to the beach, as well as being outside. She loves flowers and she is just the cutest little girl ever.

Remi was the first to arrive at the house of the Bennett family. From the very beginning he was talkactive and very friendly and quickly became best friends with his new brother Ciaran. He also loves to take care of his little sister Geraldine and brother Beathan. Therese is also very found of her new brother and they have a very close relationship. Magali is especially happy because Remi is from France just like her grandfather was and both talk often about the country while Remi teaches the other children more about the culture of their ancestor. Remi joined the track and field team of his new school and enjoys it very much, while Magali took him to her tennisteam where he joined the children's team. Magali, Alastair and the children are so glad to welcome such a great boy to the family.
The second ones to arrive at the family were the sisters Lucia Rocio and Ixchel. Lucia quickly became friends with her new sister Therese and though they don't share the same interest, they get along very well. To advance her artistic talents, Alastair took her to artclasses which she enjoys very much. For Ixchel on the other hand it wasn't so easy to adapt to her new family and she remained shy and reserved for a longer time. At some point she formed a very strong bond with Beathan, who recently turned 7 as well, and the two are almost inseperable. Because of this Ixchel opened up to her new family and quickly came to love her new family. With an intelligentstest the family found out that Ixchel has a very high I.Q. and she now takes part in classes to aid her talents.
The last to arrive was little Arya. All the other kids fell in love with her immediately and she is the baby of the family. Especially Remi loves her very much and takes good care of her. She is very interested in the cultures that Magali, Alastair and all the other children come from and Magali now teaches her Euskara, a language that Ciaran, Therese and Geraldine know as well. She is especially close to Geraldine who loves her new role as a big sister for Arya and Ixchel.

Welcome Matteus, Rini, Aysel, and Varvara!Matteus is a fifteen year old boy from Stavanger, Norway. He is a calm and studious boy who is very talented in music; he learned to play piano and guitar by ear and is currently learning to play the violin. He was kicked out of his house when his parents found out that he was bisexual; his father was very explosive and seeing as how Matteus is a hemophiliac, he decided it'd be better to leave; that's how he came to the agency/orphanage. Matteus is very polite, we were astonished at his manners when he came. he is also very intelligent. He is athletic but doesn't really care for sports; he prefers to read a memoir or play the piano or guitar. He speaks perfect English and although his strict Christian parents condemned him out of the church, he has been baptised into the Catholic church. He is thin, with brown hair and has one gray eye & one green eye. Matteus is a talented young man.Rini is a five month old girl from Osaka, Japan. She is such the sweetheart; she smiles almost every waking moment, and since she started crawling has been exploring every nook and cranny of the agency. She is much the explorer, and the sisters feel like their playing hide and go seek with her, she is troublesome to find sometimes! she is an adorable child, nonetheless. She has a round face with thick black hair and dark eyes; she is a special girl.Aysel is a one year old from Sarab, Azerbaijan. She was left at the agency, we suspect because she is blind or the parents could not care for her. Aysel is such a darling child, she is very 'talkative', babbling to herself and to the sisters. she never goes anywhere without her teddybear. Aysel has short black hair and dark brown eyes; one of the cutest toddlers you'll ever see!Varvara is a four year old from Nestani, Greece; and she is quite the energetic one! she runs around and pretends to be a butterfly. She likes playing 'mommy' with her dolls and says she wants to be a dancer when she grows up. She is also very talkative, and likes telling jokes and stories. Varvee like swimming and playing at the beach. Her imaginary friend, Poppy, is an angel with rainbow wings, just in case Varvee asks if you like her wings. She has a very large imagination; she speaks a mixture of Greek and English. Varvara has curly brown hair and light brown eyes. She will amaze you.

Thank you!These children are all wonderful! One year have past.Ashley has been teaching Matteus how to play certain instruments. He helped him with the violin, and now is now teaching him the harp. He has even had Matteus perform with him. Matteus also enjoys looking after his several younger siblings, and started dating a boy several months ago. They get along very well and the relationship is going along nicely.Rini is such a sweetheart. We have a hard time keeping her near us, she tries to get away at every chance she gets. It has gotten worse since she started walking. Luckily, her older brothers and sisters are always willing to go running after her.Aysel is SO sweet. She can often be found spending time with Rini. She has started talking even more, when she's around, there is never a moment of quiet. Maeve says that Rocky should be her "Guide cat," and the girls tried to train him. It didn't work, but everyone had fun trying. She and Varvara don't spend much time together, because when they do hey babble each other's ears off.Varvara is the most imaginative girl we've ever met. She is constantly in her own little world. She plays with Maeve a lot. She has so much fun telling stories to everyone, and we love hearing them. The other day she was telling us about a world where everyone owns a million pet butterflies and they all play together and the big rainbow. How cute! We have all gotten to know Poppy very well, and so has everyone we know. We are so lucky to have Varvee!Thank you so much!

Welcome Henrik & Runa, Haukea, and KristjanHenrik and Runa are 15 year old twins from Luleå, Sweden. Henrik is very athletic; he enjoys hiking, hockey, and snowboarding. He and his sister are very extroverted and enjoy hanging out with large groups of people. Henrik is also quite the cook; his signature dish is ostkaka. Runa also is very active; she goes jogging every morning, and likes to ice skate and snowboard. Despite being very athletic, she likes to be pampered once in a while, and indulges herself in Henrik's ostkaka. They are close but their is always a slight competition between them on who's better at snowboarding. Both were raised Christian and speak perfect English. Henrik and Runa are both tall, with platinum blonde hair and gray eyes. They are both charming to have around.Haukea is a thirteen year old girl from Mountain View, Hawaii. She is she'd like to learn ballroom. She also likes music, ranging from contemporary to classic to modern pop. She can carry a tune quite well but she would rather focus on her studies than become a pop star sensation. Haukea has set her sights on becoming a doctor someday and she always puts her best effort forth in class even if she doesn't completely get the subject. To add to this, she has dyslexia but she is determined not to let this stop her. She is petite for her age, with caramel skin, big brown eyes, and long wavy hair. Haukea was raised Protestant. She is sociable and will fit right in with your family. Kristjan is a sixteen year old boy from Akureyri, Iceland. He, unlike the other three children, is very quiet and introverted. He was brought into the agency/orphanage when the authorities found evidence incriminating his father for child abuse. Kristjan is traumatized, & untrusting of males and needs good role models for him to regain trust and respect for male authorities. Other than that, Kristjan is more of a homebody, he enjoys reading, writing, and watching movies. However, he is athletic and likes motorcross, and playing tennis. Another thing about Kristjan is he would like to become a film director; he enjoys to stay in the background and watch everybody to see how they interact and then applies that to his films. His films are quite intriguing and the sisters and i are sure he has a future in filmography. Kristjan is of average build, with coppery blonde hair and blue eyes; he speaks broken English. He truly is a delightful young man.

Kristjan is now settling in well and is sharing more and more with us. He has formed a particulary close bond with his new cousin Oliver who has been specialising in councilling within his medical training. Kristi idolises Oli and they are the best of friends spending their free time watching old movies and have even started their writing a screeplay together. They plan to then act and direct it with friends. Kristjan and I have also been playing tennis together, a passion I had as a child but I'm rather out of practice so Kris always beats me!Henrik has also settled well and has enjoyed a couple of weekends hiking in the countryside with Zavier. Whilst Hen and Zav are hiking Runa, Kea, Gwen, Blythe and I have girly weekends at home, painting our nails, watching chick flicks and eating take out.Runa is also really enjoying having younger sisters and is great with Kea, Gwen and Blythe. She has even been teaching her younger sisters to speak Swedish and has three eager pupils on her hands.Hen and Runa have also been enjoying using the nearby indoor snowboarding run and I have to say, they are both very talented!Kea has also been great and love having so many siblings as there is always somebody to chat to or have a karoke competition with! We have uber competitive family sing-offs regularly! However, she's also been remarkably focused on her studies and Kea's new teachers have been very complimentary of her skills and results. We believe that she will be able to achieve her dreams of training as a doctor and in the meantime she has been getting some extra help from cousin Oliver who is in his third year of medical training.Thank you so much for everything you have done for the Sloane family! We greatly appreciate all your efforts for us.

Welcome Dominik, Emrys, and Noemi!Dominik is a 12 year old boy from Vienenburg, Germany. He was brought into the agency when his father passed away and his mother was not fit to care for him; he was raised Catholic. He has ADD and must take certain medications. Other than that one disability, Dominik is a charming boy; he enjoys playing the drums and the guitar; he is very musically talented. Dom also likes reading poetry and writing songs; he says it helps him concentrate. He is an intelligent boy, he just has trouble sometimes. His favorite sports are tennis and baseball. He speaks German and English; he is quite talkative! He is of average height with white blonde hair and green eyes. The sisters here are sure to miss him!Emrys is a sixteen year old boy from Cardiff, Wales. He is extremely quiet, preferring to stay indoors reading a good book or watching a foreign film. Emrys came to the agency when his godfather passed away; he had some trouble at first settling in but once he began to open up, he became the perfect role model for the younger orphans here in the agency. He is very helpful and polite, as well as studious; he knows how to speak English, Spanish, and French as well as his native Welsh. He enjoys drawing and painting and photography. He hopes to go to Juilliard and earn his master degree in liberal arts. Emrys is tall and lanky, with brown hair and dark green eyes. He is such a great kid.Noemi is a seven year old from Èeský Krumlov, Czech Republic. She speaks English, but was also taught Czech as to not forget her culture. Noemi has been with the agency since she was born, and she is such a bright little girl. She likes pretending she's a princess, and loves caring for animals. Noemi says that when she grows up, she wants to be a fairy-princess-veternarian. the only problem with that is that she's deathly afraid of dogs. She is quite energetic, but she knows when to settle down. Noemi is an adorable child; she has strawberry blonde ringlets and gorgeous violet eyes. She is quite dramatic, we wouldn't be surprised if instead of becoming a fairy-princess-veternarian that she'd become an actress to portray a fairy princess. Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in. Have a wonderful day!

Domi, Em, and Noe (2 years later.)DW: Reanne Rose 'Riddy' McConnell
DH: Still not applicable. D:
DS: Emrys River 'Em' McConnell, eighteen yrs.
DS: Dominik Zephyr 'Domi' McConnell, fourteen yrs.
DD: Noemi Imogen 'Noe' McConnell, nine yrs.Domi is still ever the talkative one! We manage his ADD quite well, and always tell him to take his medication. It hasn't stopped him from being the bounciest kid on the block, though! He's grown his hair out longer than he ever has, maybe to be in style. He's a teenager now, after all! He's teaching Noe to play the guitar, and as much as I've seen, he's been writing his own songs! I'm very proud of Dom. I hope he keeps to his active behavior for a long time, even if he can be a handful sometimes.Emrys, however, is still extremely introverted. He's still shy, and prefers to do more quiet things as opposed to Dom's schedule. We're giving him a lot of freedom now that he's eighteen, but he likes to stay in and help me out with his younger siblings instead. From him, I'm actually beginning to learn a bit of Welsh! Seeing as how he used it a lot when he was first brought to me. He's still as helpful and polite as ever! He also likes to help me cook now, and we have tons of fun together.Noemi is still adorable. She's grown out of the princess thing, however. She's still very, very dramatic. It can be a pain sometimes. But she can be a good type of dramatic! Right now, she's petitioning for a dog. Guess she still hasn't given up on that veternarian thing!All in all, we're a very happy family. I could have never wished for better kids! Thank you, thisIsMyLullaby's adoption agency!The McConnells.

Welcome Oliver and Emma!Oliver and Emma are 7 year old fraternal twins from Glasgow, UK. They speak perfect English with the English accent of course, and both were brought up and baptised into the Catholic church. However, Oliver and Emma's mother died when they were 3 and their father became an alcoholic and abused them. they were taken in by a social worker and brought into the Adoptive Agency.Oliver is energetic and has a mild case of dyslexia. He loves running and playing cricket, or any sport for that matter. Ollie likes the Harry Potter films and enjoys a good bed time story involving wizards and dragons. He likes to pretend that he is tough but he is really protective of his sister, Emma. He is slightly introverted because of the abuse he and his sister went through. He is tall for his age, sandy brown hair, and hazel eyes with a sparce splattering of freckles across face.Emma is very quiet and introverted, she prefers to stay in doors and listen to music, ranging from modern pop to classical. She also enjoys dancing, and was put in a ballet class when she was brought into the agency. "Emmi" doesn't have dyslexia like her brother, but she is very shy. She is the animal lover and helped the nuns take care of the animals that we've taken in from dogs to cats. She, like her brother, enjoys a good bed time story but prefers princess and fairies in hers. Emmi is slightly traumatized because of her father's abuse, and is very untrusting of any males other than her brother. She is petite for her age, has the same sandy brown hair as her brother's except hers falls in ringlets, and they share the hazel eyes and the freckles.Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in. Have a wonderful evening!

We are happy to welcome Eliana and Elijah, Anaïs Giselle, and Sevastyan.Eliana and Elijah are five year old twins from Ariel, Israel. Their primary language is Hebrew but they speak broken English. Eliana is more talkative than her brother and loves playing dress up and has been dying to learn ballet. Although she is quite girly, she also likes playing hide-and-go-seek and ball with her brother. Elijah is the calmer of the two, but he is very energetic. He is athletic and somewhat of a builder; he likes building stuff with his legos and building blocks. Eliana and Elijah are gorgeous children, they have green eyes and dark curly hair; but more importantly they are the sweetest children ever.Anaïs Giselle "Gigi" is a two year old girl from Paris, France. Still a toddler, she speaks childish French but is very intelligent. She picks up words quickly, and remembers things very easily. She enjoys 'singing' and likes coloring. Gigi likes flowers and helps out the nuns by watering the plants, even if she sprays the sisters as well. Gigi is adorable, she has the looks of a porcelain doll: angelic blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Sevastyan is the youngest, being only nine months old. He is from the small port town of Nevelsk, Russia. He likes exploring(he just learned to walk a month ago), 'talking' with his Chebarashka toy, and running as fast as his little legs can take him. he is lively and always seen with a smile. Little Vassy has a cherubic face, curly brown hair and wide brown eyes. he is the biggest sweetheart!Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in.

DS (2): Sebastian Binyamin "Ben"It's Been too intresting years since the adoption of Ellie, Eli, Gigi, & Ben. The house hold language is now not just French, but more of a mix (a spanish example My Yamo es Gabby. I Vive in Florida). Ellie is quite a dancer. She also has found a love for competetive swimming and diving. She loves to play with her sister Leah. They seem more like a set of twins than Sarag & Leah or the E's. Eli is way shyer but seems to have a natrual talent for basketball and soccer. He and Drew play for the same teams. Eli keeps trying to get away from Ellie (to prove he's his own person) but he seems to still cling abit to her. Gigi is very energetic. Because of her we started a garden. She loves sketching Ben, Sarah, and Leah and has found a intrest in... photography! She's very good for her age and loves editing them on the computer with Daddy. Leah, Sarah, & Ellie love dressing her up. Then she prances around adorably! Finally we get to talk about Ben. Little Ben we call him. He loves Chevy, his Russian toy that he brought from Russia. It looks like thisHe also has a room full of stuffed animals. He is Gigi's follower because they are the only kids who stay home with mommy.

Welcome Anastasiya, Émile, and Jaime Natanael!Anastasiya is a five year old girl from Vereya, Russia. She is very quiet, and prefers to listen rather than talk. She likes being read to, usually anything to do with fairy tales and princesses. We at the orphanage thought at first that maybe she was mute, but one day when we were telling her the story of a princess who outsmarted an ogre, she laughed and asked us to read it again. Since she is so quiet, she is very good in expressing her emotions through facial gestures and body language. Her smile is the most beautiful thing ever,as well as her laugh; she also likes fingerpainting, or any quiet activity. Stasiya is fair, with dark brown, almost black hair and sparkling brown eyes. She is a diamond in the rough.Émile is a one year old boy from Cordes-sur-Ciel, France. He likes watching cartoons and playing with toy cars. Émile is very much a boy's boy, he likes smashing his cars together and chasing birds in the courtyards of the agency. He is adorable, he has dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes. he will be a great child for your family.Jaime Natanael is a four year old from Santillana del Mar, Spain. He loves riding around on his tricycle and going on adventures with his imaginary friend, Paco, a yellow dinosaur with orange spots. He is talkative, and loves telling stories he makes up with Paco being the main character. He makes all of the sisters laugh with his stories and his jokes are cute too. he likes watching magicians and loves going to fairs. Jaime is darling, he is has tawny skin with curly brown hair and light brown eyes with long and dark lashes. He is just a lovable kid!Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in. Have a wonderful day!
