Triple the commitment maybe? But with this sibling trio you will also triple the fun, the laughter and the pride in their accomplishments.
Eldest brother, Marshall, is refreshingly frank in his enthusiasm about sports. He is simply the best! Or, at least, he strives to be. He is confident in his athletic ability and approaches challenges eagerly. He is very involved in cadets and thrives in the structured environment that this activity provides. This young man is doing well in school. He meets Grade 8 expectations with a little a little support in Math and English. In spite of his superstar ambitions, Marshall is a sensitive and sociable boy. Although he can present as being shy when he first meets people, he is engaging, generous and kind once he gets to know them. Loving and gentle with his younger brother, interactions with his other brother can, at times, be little rambunctious - but that’s siblings for you!
Middle bother, Nolan, also enjoys sports and is looking forward to participating in air or sea cadet activities in the future. He also likes to go camping and is described as very artistic, especially when it comes to computer games. Nolan is a generally a cheerful, spirited and imaginative child with a good sense of humour. Like his older brother, he is meeting grade level expectations at school with a little help in Math and English and is popular with his peers.
Playing Batman, adventuring in the park and plunking on the piano (he loves music!) are some of youngest brother, Carl’s, interests. Carl is athletic and enjoys jumping on the trampoline and playing at floor hockey, but he is not as sports-minded as his siblings and generally “does his own thing”. He suffers from asthma and, although in good general health, sometimes needs to use a ventilator and take precautions as he can get sick easily. He attends preschool where he responds well to his teachers. Carl is an intelligent child and a fast learner. He is looking forward to school. This happy little guy is proud of his accomplishments – and of being 5 years old! People who know him describe him as affectionate, cuddly, generous, respectful and socially advanced for his years. There is no doubt that this young man is destined to be a charmer!
These three bright, energetic siblings understand what a permanent home will mean to them and would settle well into an adoptive family. They need a family who shares their Aboriginal heritage and can help them keep in touch with their culture. Their adoptive parents should be familiar with the potential effects of substance exposure during pregnancy. Marshall, Nolan and Carl may have been prenatally exposed to alcohol and drugs but this has not been confirmed. Some openness with birth family or foster family would be beneficial.
Life will be full for the family that adopts this terrific trio. Perhaps your family will be the one to see these three brothers growing up and reaching their goals.
