***Update***

We are excited about the update we just received on these beautiful sisters. The update is from April 6, 2023.

Both girls were visibly relaxed although at times a little anxious when answering questions. Izzy shares her room with another girl, a year older than her. Her room looked welcoming and colorful, with cheerful covers on the beds. Angie’s room was less colorful but she lives with two other girls, one being her close friend. One of the main duty of the girls is to tidy their rooms and keep them clean. Izzy’s favorite food is meat moussaka (a traditional meal with minced meat and potatoes). Both girls like to drink cola as well as juice. Izzy’s favorite artist is a pop-folk singer. Angie doesn’t have a preference for music yet, but from the movies she likes the one about Pepper Pig very much. Both like to play with friends and go outside, especially Izzy, who is older and therefore has more freedom. They like to play hide and seek outside. They also like to watch TV.

Izzy is in the 8th grade, and her favorite teacher is her class teacher, who also teaches her country language. Her favorite subjects are language and Mathematics, and these are her favorite teachers. She doesn’t like biology. Angie also likes her class teacher. She has friends at school. Her favorite subject is drawing. At school, both girls have friends, and Izzy said that she often goes out with them after school, as well as with some of the children from the Center.

Both children study English at school but do not have much knowledge on the language. Both girls wish to be adopted and have a family. They would be happy to have other children in their family. They are aware that they would have to learn another language. They would also love to have pets, as Angie would love a dog and Izzy a cat. A mentoring program has been created at the Center, i.e. a particular adult forms a more special bond with a particular child. According to information from the social worker, both Izzy and Angie get along well with their mentors. The social worker also added the girls are calm, nice kids who get along with everyone and don’t cause trouble. In general, both sisters maintain good contact with all the people from the staff.

We have even more updated information we would love to share with an interested family. Please contact kathy@wiaa.org.
