Here’s what we’re gonna do: I will make parent who has adopted as many children as I will decide, then we will make their adopted children followed by a picture and description of their life. When we finish making the adopted children, we will move into the next family. You can also do connections to other families if you want to. I thought this might be kinda fun. I never saw anything like this so I wanted to try it.

His parents were killed by a drunk man who slammed into their car. Luckily [name_u]Bryce[/name_u] was found quickly enough to get to the hospital. He has a scar across his face but he still treasures it as his parents protecting him. [name_u]Bryce[/name_u] was fostered at 4 years old with the last name Frengles. When [name_u]Allison[/name_u] came into the picture he was thrilled to have a sister. He was officially adopted at the same time as [name_u]Allison[/name_u].

[name_m]Oliver[/name_m] [name_u]Gray[/name_u] “Ollie” [name_u]Duffy[/name_u] (3). He is the youngest of Bryce’s sons. He can be a troublemaker but is really sweet normally. [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] looks like his momma but has his dad’s eyes. He is a super picky eater only wanting to eat pasta, carrots with ranch, blueberries, and chocolate muffins.
(I hope this helps with his 5 older brothers. Please use names that are more common with nicknames. The 8-year-old twins can be identical or fraternal. Be Creative

[name_f]Monika[/name_f] [name_f]Prim[/name_f] [name_u]Duffy[/name_u] (35) and [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] “ [name_m]Ike[/name_m] “ [name_u]Red[/name_u] [name_u]Duffy[/name_u] (5) are respectively the aunt and brother of [name_u]Ollie[/name_u]. [name_f]Monika[/name_f] is Allison’s younger sister and the two relate with [name_u]Bryce[/name_u] over losing parents in a car accident. She considers Bryce’s biological parents to be very courageous during their last moments of life and encourages him a lot. [name_f]Monika[/name_f] misses them so much and thinks about them a lot although she’s been nothing but happy to have a life with [name_f]Odelia[/name_f]. She relates to being unmarried like her adoptive mother [name_f]Odelia[/name_f] although much of Monika’s time is spent in the military so she is away a lot anyway. She feels a sense of being a fighter but she’s very humble as well about her accomplishments and keeps a lot of the dark military secrets away from anyone’s children…or really anyone who doesn’t want to be disturbed. [name_f]Monika[/name_f] loves to come home for her family though and is closest with [name_m]Ike[/name_m] out of Bryce’s children, since the two have birthdays close to one another’s. She’s impressed by how brave her family is as well overcoming hardships even despite her own career. She loves Mexican food and finds fajitas her fave. She also likes to colour in any of her adult colouring books from her collection.
[name_m]Ike[/name_m] is a very happy-go-lucky kiddo who relates with his father about being in the middle of the adoptive siblings. [name_m]Ike[/name_m] is also a picky eater and cannot have foods touching other foods on his plate. He and [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] love to play hide-and-seek-tag and [name_m]Ike[/name_m] enjoys musical instruments too, although they’re smaller ones like the triangle or simply the bells. [name_m]Ike[/name_m] is openly excited whenever around family and considers his mother [name_f]Sarah[/name_f] like a big queen in his life since she’s the only woman of the household he lives in, but that doesn’t stop him from enjoying the influences of the other females like [name_f]Monika[/name_f], [name_u]Allison[/name_u], [name_f]Ofelia[/name_f], and more!

Isaiah Joshua Duffy is 30 years old, is the adoptive son of Odelia, and is Tanner’s uncle. He was put in the foster care system at 6 years old when an illness took his single father quickly and suddenly. He was adopted by Odelia not too long after that. Isaiah looked up to his older brother Bryce and loved to copy him growing up, and even went into the medical field as well. Isaiah noticed how he how always been surrounded by death due to his father and the fate of some of his adoptive siblings’ parents, so Isaiah became a palliative nurse.
Isaiah is shy, gentle, and sweet. He is a good listener to his sister Monkia and talks to her often about her experiences in the military when she feels comfortable. He loves outdoor activities; he often skis with Odelia, and occasionally hikes with Allison. He has a sweet tooth for anything chocolate, and often shares a chocolate muffin with his nephew Oliver when he visits. Isaiah loves family friendly movies, and enjoys watching them with Tanner. When he comes home from work, he de-stresses with tea and watches lighthearted movies and shows with his fiancé.

Warning of fatal natural disaster.
[name_m]Yeremy[/name_m] [name_m]Kwasi[/name_m] [name_u]Duffy[/name_u] (32) is Isaiah’s adoptive brother and the story behind his adoption was being rescued from a natural disaster at the age of 3. His mother was unfortunately confirmed deceased, however his father and older brother were never actually found and only presumed dead. He and [name_m]Isaiah[/name_m] bond the most of the adoptive siblings, also feeling a best friend bond. He still attends therapy for his own mental health and encourages this for anyone. [name_m]Yeremy[/name_m] is in the process of adopting a son for himself and his future son has already gotten along with a few other kids of the family. [name_m]Yeremy[/name_m] is a science teacher at an alternative school and he’s very intrigued by the subject itself, especially plant biology and botany. He happens to be a great breakdancer, considering this his hidden talent. [name_u]Allison[/name_u] and [name_f]Monika[/name_f] know this the most although one adoptive sibling is even better than [name_m]Yeremy[/name_m] is – which he’s low-key jealous of but also proud of, he can’t complain. Why complain when you can be happy for others? He still contacts his biological family members he knows when he can.

[name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] [name_u]Julian[/name_u] [name_u]Duffy[/name_u] is 27 years old, is the brother of [name_m]Yeremy[/name_m], and is one of Odelia’s kids
He was set up for adoption by his teen mom when he was born. [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] developed vitiligo around age 9. He always felt a bit insecure about his skin condition due to teasing and anxiety, but as he gets older he tries embracing it more, thanks to therapy. [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] finds and reconnects with his mom at age 18, and finds that vitiligo runs in the family. He also finds that generalized anxiety disorder runs in his family. He suspected that he might have that, but was nervous about going to therapy. Finding out his biological mother goes to therapy for it, and with Yeremy’s encouragement, [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] started going to therapy at age 20.
[name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] loves drawing, and went to art school to become an illustrator. However, he realized the amount of networking you need to do, and just cutthroat the industry could be, and he felt like it was too much for him. After a year of attending art school he quickly felt burn out and dropped out. He became an electrical instead, but wants to go back to school, he is just unsure of what he wants to do. However, after a little over a year of recovering from his burn out he started drawing again and reignited his passion. He now has a few designs on his Redbubble as a side gig, and much prefers drawing what he wants at his own pace.
[name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] is close with [name_m]Yeremy[/name_m], and is thankful for his encouragement to go to therapy. [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] and [name_m]Isaiah[/name_m] became engaged roughly at the same time, and helped each other plan their weddings. [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] is now a newlywed, and became a father to his wife’s twin daughters. He likes to give out cards to his family with a personalized illustration he made for different holidays. For example, he draw different plants on Yeremy’s birthday card, a basketball game for [name_u]Tanner[/name_u], different instruments for [name_m]Ike[/name_m] and [name_u]Allison[/name_u], etc. He loves drawing for his young nieces and nephews the most. [name_m]Ulysses[/name_m] also likes to do small wood carvings, knit, and cook. He often carves small birds, knits scarves, and cooks Mexican food, which he always makes when [name_f]Monika[/name_f] visits.
