Gender: Female
Country: Ireland
The Willoughbys
DH: Rupert Charles "Rue" [23]
DW: Annabel Poppy "Anya" [22]
DD: Mairéad Iris Beatrix "Maisie" [14 months]
To see and hold Mairéad for the first time was amazing. It was a feeling that I cannot explain. I was overjoyed and could hardly believe that it had finally happen, I was a mother at last. We spent a few days in Ireland, bonding with Maisie and exploring the beautiful country. Within a few days I felt as if she was truly mine and had always been mine. Once our trip was over, we flew home with our brand new daughter back to Vancouver, Canada.

Name: Archer Caspian
Adopted By: The Cumberbatchs, Alice & Benedict.
This little boy is full of spunk and imagination. Even the simplest items like a box can be turned into an airplane, train, or even a rocket ship, anything to take him away from this place. With his charming personality, he has no difficulties making friends. In a country with a one child policy, he is the rarity, where most Chines couples want and depend on having a son. His appearance on the doorstep when he was a baby, with nothing but a note tied to his foot is still a mystery. He needs a family who will always push him towards his dreams.

Name: Carter Felix
Adopted By: The Gaisfords, Julia & Sg. James.
This little guy is very shy and timid. He knows how to self entertain himself and is content to do so. It takes him awhile to warm up to someone, but when he does, he'll cling to that person for ear life. He scares easily, especially loud sounds like thunder and firecrackers. His caretakers seem to think that he was left for long periods of time by himself, more than likely left to cry for days on end in his crib. He needs a family to show him love and affection.

Squeezable cheeks and big blue eyes make this little boy hard to resist. They capture your attention the very moment you set eyes on him. He loves attention and very much loves to be held. He hates being put down and will cry when he is. The women at the orphanage have spoiled him, which has greatly made up for his teenage mother abandoning him at the doorstep of the orphanage when he was only a couple hours old. He needs a family that will continue to spoil him.

Name: Eloise Ruby
Adopted By: The Lowrys, Samm & Hayden.
Disability? What disability? In her mind she is just like everyone else and can do anything they can do. Who cares that she has Down Syndrome? She hasn't let it stop her and she's not about to start now. She has a maternal nature to her, especially towards the doll she is always carrying around. She loves babies and is happiest when someone allows her to help with a baby, even if it's a simple thing like giving them a bottle. Her mother gave her up, not wanting to care for a disabled child. She needs a family who will love her for who she is.

Country: Brazil
Age: 6 months.
Name Restrictions: First name has Elle/Ella in it. Middle name(s) are virtues.
Name: Arabella Verity
Adopted By: The Olivas, Carlié & ____.
Curious and adventurous very much describes this little doll to a tee. Every since she started crawling she loves exploring and often gets into things she's not suppose to. Already she's starting to stand on her own and it won't be long until she's walking, and consequentially getting into more stuff. She's definitely a little diva, having a short temper and known for throwing tantrums when she doesn't get her way or is told "no" when she gets into trouble. She needs a family who can give her a safe environment.

configmanager on Flickr
Country: Rwanda
Age: 22 months.
Name Restrictions: First name is from this list. Middle name(s) are Biblical.
Name: Ezekiel Malachi
Adopted By: The Chestersons, Genevieve & Roland.
This little boy is sweet and loves physical contact, whether it be hugs or simply holding someone's hand. What he loves the most, however, is cuddling on someone's lap while they read a book. He's incredibly bright and although he cannot speak (from unknown reasons), he does know how to sign. His parents died from Malaria. It's a wonder that he didn't succumb to the same disease. He needs a loving, intelligent family to work with his developmental delays.

Country: Poland
Age: 3 years
Name Restrictions: First name from this list. Middle name(s) are Polish.
Name: Dempsey Maksym
Adopted By: The Pines, Casey & Christopher
This little boy breathes, eats, and sleeps soccer. There is nothing else in the world he loves more. He dreams of one day becoming a great, professional soccer player. He's a typical rowdy, little boy who likes to rough house with the other boys. Not surprisingly he's had several trips to the hospital, his most recently trip because of a broken arm from falling out of a tree. Of course he's not going to let that stop him from playing his favorite game! He needs an athletic family who he can play with.
Girl 8&9 (twins) -
Oatsandsugar on Flickr
Country: Sri Lanka
Age: 4 years.
Name Restrictions: First names are fictional Princesses. Middle name(s) are from this list.
Adopted By:
Inseparable is the word that best describes this duo. You never see one without the other. Since they were infants, they've only have had each other to rely on. Because of this it is hard for them to trust other people. They keep to themselves and play with each other, rarely interacting with the other children. One activity they do take a part in with the other children is dress up. They are very girly and love to wear dresses, imagining themselves as royalty. They need a family who will always be there for them.
