Help[Games] Darkest Congrats Round Four
Hello, and welcome to the third round of Darkest Congrats. Due to my severe laziness lately, this round has been declared a “free round.” A free round is from here on out a round where there are no rules whatsoever. I will post name banks - you may choose whether to use them. I will list the random events - you may choose which and how many you want to incorporate into your writing. I’ll even allow you to decide how many children you want to have. Some of you have stated you don’t want any - go for it. Another thing I’ll allow for this round only is for you to control the years that have passed. I’ll age everyone who is alive five years - you can change it so that up to three more or less years have passed. Just be sure to leave me a note if you do that! Whatever you can think of to do, I’ll allow, as long as it doesn’t make your family completely confusing for me. Basically, anything goes.
All I ask is that you all actually write something. Your oldest children are now around fifteen - a very dramatic age. Let’s see some drama. You can also post pictures of your children - veer.com is a good place to start looking. Just have fun!
Since it has been so long, here is a link to the last round: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=3097056&board=game.
Edit: If you don't get the whole "free round" thing, look at my family. Just don't be intimidated by how much I wrote. You don't have to write that much - unless you want to.
Finally, by request I will post a writing from the last round I particularly enjoyed. This time, I’m using Octavia’s. I just love reading about the family she has created through this game, and I would like to showcase her writing. This, people, is what a writing congrats is about. Another thing I love about Octavia’s participation is the pictures she posts of her family. Seriously, check them out.
After Dave and Nikolai's Baguadian shenanigans, the family remained in Italy for a few more years. The Malley children, to their parents' delight, are growing up bilingual. When Maria turned 6, Dave and Antonia also made the decision to homeschool their children, since they had no real long-term plans about where they were going to live. Antonia's family is very large; she is the second of eight siblings, and all of them but her still live in Italy. Her parents, Carlo and Donatella Arcangeli, are a very powerful and proud family locally, and Antonia's marriage to an Englishman and subsequent moving away caused her to lose some favor with the rest of the family. Now that the Malleys are living in Italy, though, and the Arcangelis have met Dave, they are beginning to warm up to them again. (The fact that the Malley children are bilingual feeds the Arcangelis approval.) [Man, tension runs rampant through this excerpt!]
Anyway, the youngest Arcangeli daughter, Rachele, has always been the most reckless of the bunch. When she was 17, she had a brief physical relationship with her employer Salvatore Mantovani, an extremely handsome, wealthy, and married man more than twice her age for whom she filed papers. When Rachele became pregnant, Dr. Mantovani flatly denied his paternalism, fired Rachele, and moved to Milan. Carlo and Donatella were appalled at Rachele's reckless sexual abandon and disowned her. To irk the two men who had messed her up, Rachele gave her son both of their names, but called him Ignazio because that one was her favorite name ever! She also made Antonia and Dave Ignazio's godparents, because Antonia was the second blackest sheep in the family, and Dave had expressed the opinion that they were all treating Rachele a bit rudely.
Rachele had taken off with Ignazio quite early in the Malley's term of livinginItaly, and she hadn't occupied much of their thoughts since. One day--I don't know, how do people learn these things?--someone dropped Iggy off at the doorstep. Poor Iggy announced that Rachele had died recently from an overdose on heroin or something, and now Antonia and Dave were his legal guardians. They were slightly shocked and puzzled. Donatella was suddenly extremely remorseful of her decision to disown Rachele and became nearly hysterical for days. She insisted that Rachele have a proper funeral in the family cemetery, with all the proper rites, and so the Arcangeli family all attended a highly awkward funeral, complete with disgruntled priest. After the funeral, the dynamic was altered significantly: Carlo was grouchy and disgruntled at his wife's infinite weeping, and took out his anger on Antonia, calling her a shame to the family, marrying a foreigner and taking in a bastard child. Dave and Antonia scooped up their children and said a quiet goodbye about two weeks after acquiring Iggy, moving this time to Cambridge, Massachusetts, because Dave and Nikolai wanted to make a film about the psychology behind being a Harvard student.
Maria, Gabe, and John were all completely baffled by the move--mostly by the fact that everyone spoke English instead of Italian, but the fact that Antonia's family wasn't around was also upsetting, along with several other cultural differences I can't talk about, having never been to Italy. Maria was especially upset, as she had become close to many of her cousins and their friends. Besides, John and Gabe had each other to play with, but Maria had lost all of her tweenie female friends. She had become a very intelligent and outspoken young lady, and was found very charming by adults, but wasn't satisfied by their company and resented their condescending attitude towards her. All adults but her parents, she found, especially in America, were extremely condescending to her. Gabe and John are growing to become foils of each other: Gabe is quieter and more inquisitive, while John is boisterous and rough. Nevertheless, they have been getting along quite well. Neither of them will pass up an opportunity to be silly and boyish. The sudden addition of Iggy into the mix has puzzled both of them. Iggy is a quiet, dark-featured boy, who only speaks Italian when he speaks. He doesn't show much interest in his surroundings and just watches Gabe and John while they play. He puzzles Dave, too, who simply doesn't know what to do with him, but Antonia and Nikolai both get along well with him--that is, silently, watching flowers or fish or trees and not asking questions.
Okay, now that that’s over with - here are your families. Go wild.

All I ask is that you all actually write something. Your oldest children are now around fifteen - a very dramatic age. Let’s see some drama. You can also post pictures of your children - veer.com is a good place to start looking. Just have fun!
Since it has been so long, here is a link to the last round: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=3097056&board=game.

Thanks to James getting a few big jobs in quite quick succession, we recently moved house. In this bigger home, everyone gets their own room and there are two guest rooms. All the kids love the house, especially Felix, Lily, Audrey and Sebastian, because they love running around in the huge yard.
Olivia recently developed her first real crush, on a boy named Jake, which was very cute. She didn't want to tell me too much at first, but luckily Charlie's girlfriend, Bridget, is round here all the time and Olivia felt more than able to share everything with her. We've been getting a little worried about Charlie's behavior recently, he's been staying out later than he should and there seems to be parties two or three times a week. Bee is a nice kid and seems to keep some sort of control on him, but James and I are keeping a close eye on him; we especially don't want him to influence his younger siblings, particularly Audrey, who somewhat idolises him.

We're aging up three years more, for added lol. And you wanted dramahz? Well, dramahz you get, ma'am.
And do we just choose which random event we want? If I've done that wrong, smack me on the wrist and I'll fix it up. ;)

One of your children has just experienced his/her first crush.
The DeWinters family has changed significantly since we last observed them. Connor and Winnie found that attempting to rectify their issues as a couple simply would not work. Despite all they tried, the two finally came to the conclusion that, while they were each fond of the other in a friendly way, they could not say that they were still in love.
After the divorce, Connor, who had to do a great deal of soul-searching, finally managed to admit to himself that, in truth, he preferred the company of men to women. Winnie was shocked and did not approve, and only the eldest four children are aware that Daddy now has a friend called Neil. Winnie has prevented Conor, to the best of her ability, from seeing the children; she and her new husband, Tim, have vowed not to let his perversions spoil the minds of eight beautiful boys and girls.
Connor has been understandably heartbroken and is trying to petition the courts for at least visitation rights, but thus far, he has not been successful. Of the children aware of why Daddy can't come see them anymore, only Simon disagrees to the point of arguing openly with his mother about it. Frankie and Cecy just don't want to engage on the issue, while Bridget agrees with her mother.

(note: i'm using the Dutch school system in my writing. This means that Kindergarten is attached to primary school (it's called grade 1 & 2), and highschool is from age 12 (1st grade), and there is no such thing as junior high etc.)
Five years have passed and quite a lot has happened. When Seb was 3 I asked Ruslan again whether he'd let me go back to work or not. He still didn't want me to work, but said that he was fine with it, when Seb would go to kindergarten, and I'd find work at a school near him or in the school we were going to put him in. I immediately tried to find out if there were going to be any vacancies for teaching in the area in the next year. One school said that they could use someone for part-time teaching and who would also give exra classes to kids that needed special attention. It wasn't exactly the same as having my own class, but I was only to happy to agree to do that in the future.
A couple of months later the day had finally come that all our kids were in school. Isa was in the 3rd grade and doing fine. She had begun to take an interest in boys and now had a crush on a 17 year old guy from her school. The triplets had just started highschool. Max and Cai proved to be troublemakers, even more than they had been in primary school, but so far there had been no serious consequences (yet?). Winnie was very quiet, but the best student of the bunch, she only brought good grades home and once got really upset over a 60 she had gotten. I'm happy that she took her study seriously, but a bit concerned that she might be taking it a little too seriously. Con was in grade 4 in primary school (the normal grade for a 7 year old) and doing okay.

Pics of the family
This is Ruslan with his typical facial exression:
This is an old one of Isa, it was taken last summer outside my parents' house. She's the only one with freckles in the family, she looks like my mom:
This is Max. This photo was taken in the winter, he looks a bit pale here and he's squinting a bit:
This is Cai. This was taken last summer, he has lighter hair than Max', but other than that they look a lot alike:
This is Winnie, it's from last year, but it's my fav picture of her. I think she looks quite like Isa, only without freckles:
I thought I'd include one of Gabe before he died. He was such a cutie:
This is Con, I think he looks a lot like his brothers, especially Max who had the exact same hair colour at that age:
And here's a picture of Rome. He looks so much like Ruslan. He even has 'that look' in his eyes sometimes. I hate the necklace btw, but Ruslan got it for him, and he never takes it off:
And finally here's Seb. He looks like all of his brothers did at 5. He's growing up too fast, I wish my baby would stay like this forever :)
And yeah, there's no pic of me. I couldn't find a single one where I looked good...

Random Event: Your oldest has just experienced their first crush.
It's been another eventful five years for the Sander family. The triplets - Evan, Gracie, and Annie - are now fifteen, Ben is thirteen, Nick is eleven, the twins - Dylan and Lily - are ten, Julia is seven, Olivia is five, and the newest addition to our family - Samuel Dominic "Sam" Sander - is one year old.
Evan and I weren't planning on having any more children after Olivia was born. Raising nine children was not going to be an easy feat in any way. However, when I found out I was pregnant with Sammy, we knew there was no changing what was about to happen and just decided to get ready.
All the kids, surprisingly, were really excited about having yet another baby in the house. It wasn't really any big deal to Evan, Gracie, or Annie, seeing as they already had six younger siblings, but they were excited all the same. Olivia was really excited about being a big sister, and Dylan really was hoping for a little brother. When the big day came, Samuel Dominic was 7 lbs, 13 oz and 21 inches long. He was absolutely beautiful. He had bright blue eyes and very dark brown hair.
Sam is one now and doing extremely well. He's taken a liking to playing with his older siblings. He likes to play with animals and cars and he absolutely LOVES dinosaurs.
Evan is fifteen now, and a sophomore in high school. Over last summer he grew almost 3 inches and he officially passed me up, height-wise. Evan just got his report card and got all A's and one B. He was kind of upset about the B, but really is going to work harder next semester. He and his sisters are all in the band - Evan plays trumpet. He is also on the bowling team, the golf team, and the tennis team. Lately he has been talking a lot about this one girl - Bree that he has a crush on. Evan has been considering asking her out, but he is really shy and nervous about it. Annie and Gracie are actually really supportive to him. I'm glad the three are as close as they are, even in high school.

Well, let's see. Cambridge, it turns out, treated everyone well. The documentary was a startling success. The general public interpreted it as a profound criticism of the American collegiate system - its vast expense, dubious benefits, and growing necessity in the professional world. And, well, it was. "But we like Harvard," Dave was quick to point out in an interview following the release of the film. "Yes," Nikolai added, "it's quite pretty."
Nikolai is very skinny, with dark hair and thin, intense facial features. He looks somewhat like
, without all the weirdness. "Nikolai bears no ill will towards anyone, which makes him a great objective voice," Dave said in the same interview. He's withdrawn and courteous and very reasonable, and has never had a romantic relationship, nor does he show any interest in ever having one.
Antonia has published two books in the meantime: one a compilation of some of her earlier articles, the second some really deep political commentary. Both of them were hugely successful, bringing Antonia's pseudonym Ben Mount to the tongues of the vaguely politically aware masses. The fact that both she and Dave have become well-known on the American political ... spectrum? without anyone knowing they're married has tickled both of them quite a lot, and made it especially important for Antonia's identity to remain secret, as Steiner and Shapiro have made it clear they're Ben Mount fans, and vice versa. Meanwhile, rumors about Ben Mount's true identity run rampant!

Kevin and Jenn talked about it, and figured that the more that lived in their house, the more fun it would be! They already had 9 people living there, what were 4 more? Kevin and Jenn fixed up a few rooms upstairs and the Tamewitz kids just have so much fun with their cousins, the Bonaddio's.
Katrina and Eliza helped get Gretchen used to life at Durington High School. Although Katrina is around 6 months older than Gretchen, they are still in the same grade (11th). Katrina has a wonderful boyfriend, Kent, and they've been dating for almost 2 years. Whenever Gretchen first came, Katrina introduced her to Kent's cousin, Shawn, and they hit it off. They're dating now, too! Shawn and Kent come from such a nice family, and they all get along great. Brogan and Eliza still have the same group of friends, which is nice. Brogan plays football and Eliza is a cheerleader, and they are in 10th grade.
Bridget, Kieran and Ethan go to Durington Middle School, where Kieran and Ethan are in 7th grade and Bridget is in 6th. She has made plenty of new friends as well, and is a social butterfly! She is very active. Her new favorite sport is soccer, and she plays for the school. The twins are both still very into baseball and play both for the Durington league and a travel league. The twins have many of the same friends and are both a little shy.

Casey was growing up to be such a sweet little girl, but with 8 other children in the house, and Paula’s career flourishing, extra help was needed.
Before the twins were born, Paula and Jackie had hired a wonderful nanny named Lucie to look after the kids. Eliot, Alex, and Maya all adored her and her children (at the time Lucie had twins- Rachel and Ollie- who were a year older than the triplets. They came with Lucie to the Craige-Widell’s house every day and the kids had a blast). As much as the family loved Lucie, they had a tight budget and once Gabe and Lucas were a year old, Paula and Jackie decided they could handle everything on their own once again, but they stayed in touch.
This all happened around 15 years ago, and now Lucie had two more girls; Kathy and Evelyn. The Craige-Widells contacted Lucie again and luckily she said she would be thrilled to work for them again, this time looking after her own 4 children, and 9 new ones. Since Casey needed a lot of special attention, Lucie agreed to move in with her children and look after Casey from their home. The Craige-Widells welcomed the 5 Los into their home. Casey fell in love with Lucie and her children, and took a special liking to Kathy, who was a year older than she was herself.
Around the time all of this was happening, Maya was getting pretty serious with her first boyfriend Brendan.

One of your children is expecting!
Your oldest child tells you he/she is homosexual. How do you react?
Instead of having children of your own, you have adopted the child(ren) of a deceased relative. Discuss.
A baby was left on the front step with a note saying (he/she) belongs to (husband). What happened? How does (wife) react? Will you keep the baby? If so, add (him/her) to your family with the tag shown in Darkest's family by Madeline Rose.
Wow. A lot has happened in the last seven years. Too much, almost. I mean, there have been trageties. Just, nothing Carlisle and I, and the kids, can't handle. Can you beleive that my little Simon is already 17? 17. In a year, he'll be at college. And my babies, Maribel and Bridget, are almost preteens! In a few years they'll be in middle school. Jeez. Time just flies doesn't it. By now you're probably wondering what has happened.
Well, around 3 years ago, Simon was 14. He came to us one night at dinner and told us he was in a relationship-- with another boy. I had already suspected he was homosexual. I could tell that, in the past year, he had been choosing words carefully, as if trying to hide something. He sometimes did slip up and say things like "That's so fabulous". And one day, a week before he came out, I was searching for a lost shoe and when I checked his closet, I found a book about being gay. There were other signs too. I guess I never put them together much. Around 1 year and a half ago, a few months after that night at dinner, he introduced us to his boyfriend, Sebastian. Carlisle and I don't think our kids' sexuality matters, as long as they're happy.

It's been 5 years and the family is doing okay. Simon finished a big project at his job and a big bonus soon followed. The family moved to a much larger home. Forrest is a Sophmore now and is in his first serious relationship with Holli Williams. A very sweet girl that lives on the next block.
Ross has become quite a good skateboarder. There is even talk that he may make it to the X-Games next year. He's so busy between being a Freshman and his skateboarding that he doesn't have time for much else. Him and Forrest aren't as close as they use to be.
Addie & Ellie are turning into beautiful young ladies. They are currently in the 7th grade and have started "dating" twin brothers; Ethan and Austin Fox. Of course their "dating" consists mostly of hanging out at each others houses and an occasional movie when one of the mothers will give them a ride.
Zane, who wasn't too thrilled when Sebastian and Felix first came to live with the Garrity's, now loves being a big brother to Sebastian. He's always helping him practice soccer in the backyard. Zane is in the 5th grade and is the star goalie for his soccer team.
Sebastian and Felix's transition wasn't as smooth as it first seemed to be. The boys began acting out and becoming very aggressive. The loss of their parents, language and country was obviously really starting to bother them. They started seeing a very prominent child psychologist in Manhatten. It really seemed to help Sebastian, but not Felix.
At 7 the boys are in 2nd grade and although Sebastian is doing well, Felix is really struggling there. He's always acting out and bullying other kids. He is also struggling accademically.

Well, it has been a busy four years.
First of all that starts with Stella. When Stella was 14 is started dating 15 year old Levi Davis. One year later she had twins. We were very disapointed about what had happened, but what could we do now. Levi's parents kicked him out, because they were very wealthy and "snobby" and "couldn't" have a teenage father for a son. So Levi and Stella and the twins were all living with us. They got married one year later. Levi is a very nice boy, and quite. Now the twins are 3 years olds. Levi is working and going to a community college. Stella is also going to college. The twins names a Elijah and Estrella. They both have thick curly black hair and grey-blue eyes.
Marshall has been giving us trouble as well. Marshall also has a wife, Cassandra (18) and a one year old daughter Isobel. Pretty much the same story as Stella's, but they have their own apartment. They are both working, Cassandra as a hair dresser in a salon and Marshall hopes to become a police officer one day, but for now is working in the jail. Isobel is a beatiful baby.

So much has happened in the past seven years, I hardly know where to start.
Rhett and I made it past that rough patch in our marriage and are standing on solid ground now. We both agreed long ago that Isabelle would be our eighth and last child; so far so good! Everyone is happy and healthy; we couldn't ask for more.
I think part of our success was our ability to start over. Six years ago, Rhett's father unexpectedly passed away and left his entire estate in England to our family. My father-in-law was reasonably wealthy, so understandably the estate, which was in the countryside just outside of London, was rather large. Rhett and I felt that the opportunity to begin anew was too good to pass up, so we picked up the entire family and made the move across the pond. I think we've settled here quite nicely. Our four youngest girls -- Violet, Audrey, Ava, and Isabelle -- have even picked up slight British accents! It's adorable.
The move was definitely better for Rhett's music career, since a large portion of his fan base before we came here was in Europe. Now, living in England, his band is able to play at a lot more venues without having to travel too much. Plus, they're garnering more and more notice. But I hope Rhett will remember that his family should come first.

So much has happened in the past seven years, I hardly know where to start.
Rhett and I made it past that rough patch in our marriage and are standing on solid ground now. We both agreed long ago that Isabelle would be our eighth and last child; so far so good! Everyone is happy and healthy; we couldn't ask for more.
I think part of our success was our ability to start over. Six years ago, Rhett's father unexpectedly passed away and left his entire estate in England to our family. My father-in-law was reasonably wealthy, so understandably the estate, which was in the countryside just outside of London, was rather large. Rhett and I felt that the opportunity to begin anew was too good to pass up, so we picked up the entire family and made the move across the pond. I think we've settled here quite nicely. Our four youngest girls -- Violet, Audrey, Ava, and Isabelle -- have even picked up slight British accents! It's adorable.
The move was definitely better for Rhett's music career, since a large portion of his fan base before we came here was in Europe. Now, living in England, his band is able to play at a lot more venues without having to travel too much. Plus, they're garnering more and more notice. But I hope Rhett will remember that his family should come first.

It's been busy years and I don't know where to begin! Cohen is still in jail and he will be there for three more years.
Allie met a eight years older, handsome and nice guy at the mall and soon the two of them started to date eachother.
They didn't tell their children because they weren't sure about how they would react. They guy, who's name is Darian, has three children at age 22, 20 and 12 and their names are Tyson, Alexis and Sebastian.
After a few months they told their children. Most of them were only happy about it but Ainsley and Adrian had a hard time to adjust.
Later, Allie and Darian also got married and had their first child, a boy named Noah.
Only a few months after Noah's birth Tyson told Allie and his father that he and his wife were expecting a baby. All of us were very happy and Darian couldn't wait to become a grandfather! A cold night in february a little girl was born, named Sophia.

Random Event:One of your fathers dies, leaving you a large inheritance.
William's father, Rodney (I think, it might be something starting with a J from the first round) died a few weeks ago. This is a sad time in our lives.
After the funeral, William's mother got him and his two brothers. She told them about the will their father wrote saying that the brothers and William's mother got 1/4 each of the money he had saved.
We all knew that William's father (my father in law) was wealthy but we did not know that he saved this much!
With the money, we saved most of it for college savings for the children (with 8 children college can be a lot even if they get scholarships) and our own savings. We also spent some of it for a large memorial for William's father.
Meanwhile, William is getting treatment and help for his leg and his blindness from his last CIA mission. The goverment is paying for that. He is liking his new station for the CIA but likes the action missions better than the technical help.
I finished my book which was a hit! It made the top ten! I am still taking care of the children. A couple of years ago surprisingly I had another son, Robert. We are all enjoying him. With 8 children that some are teenagers, tweens, elementary, and a toddler I sure do keep busy! Here are what is happening to them:
John and Bess are 15 now! Wow, how time flys by! John is on the school's baseball team. He is enjoying that. Bess is in the school play "Annie" and is Annie because of her bright red hair. She also does Irish dancing. Bess and Kitty take care of the little ones sometimes when I am not home. I can trust them. Kitty is also in "Annie". Kitty admires her older sister so much and wants to copy her and Bess does get annoyed sometimes by that but sometimes she likes that. Alex and Eli are on their first year in upper school. Alex is more active than Eli. Lily and Julia are as sweet as they can be. They are in third grade now. When Robert was born, they were six and had to adjust to not having as much attention anymore. Robert is a darling too.

Things certainly have been going quickly around the Tiernan household. John Paul is now 16, and just recently got his license, God help us all. It still baffles me as to how he managed to pass the test. I hope he will become a better driver...quickly! Although, with his busy schedule I don't mind being a retired chaiffer. John Paul is very well-rounded. He plays soccer, and basketball and has been a part of the spring musical for the past two years. We are very proud of him.
Henry and Eva are also in high school. Eva is a wonderful student, although she was slightly devastated this past fall when she received her first B in a class, Chemistry, no less. She is a bright girl, and I know she will figure it out. She also is a member of the dance team and plays softball. Henry is very much an athlete. He plays football, basketball, and baseball. He does decently in school, and he tries his best, which is all that really matters.
Nora recently turned 13...and the world knows it! She has been going through her, "I'm 13, I know more thsn everyone and the world better catch up!" phase. We are fairly sure she will mellow out eventually, and in the meantime, Jacob and I enjoy slightly embarrasing her.
Mary, Isaac, and Dominic and doing wonderfully. They love school and playing with one another and their friends. Mary has recently become a bit of a tag-along with Nora and her friends, much to Nora's dissmay.
On top of all of this, Jacob's father, Clement, recently passed away. He left us a good deal of money in his will because Jacob was his only child. We were all a bit shocked, but we have decided to put the money away in order pay for our children's education. Jacob's mother, Violette, decided keeping up the old house was too much work for her, and she has decided to move in with us.

Well, the last few years have been stressful ones. Most of the children reacted well to the arrival of their half-brother Ethan, but for some reason Simon couldn't cope with the reminder that Rob had been involved with another woman before marrying me. As a result there have been a lot of tensions between the siblings, most of whom dote on Ethan and didn't understand Simon's anger. Feeling alienated from his family, he got in with the wrong crowd at school and started skiving off, taking drugs and shoplifting. Eventually he was caught and arrested. It sounds strange, but I think that was the best thing that could hae happened. He was sentenced to community service so has been helping at the local old people's home and has built up a very strong relationship with one of the residents, Martin. Martin has given Simon some very valuable advice which is allowing him to build bridges with Ethan and the rest of the family. Hpefully things will calm down a bit now, although in such a large family there is plenty to go wrong! Nicola's birth took us all by surprise (you forget one pill...) but the upside of having so many children is that the older ones are available to help with feeding, nappy changing, etc. Faye is particularly keen on helping out - I can tell she is going to be a brilliant mother herself one day!

It has been a busy six years for the Thompson family. Wil has been very busy at work and getting involved with everyone else's problems every day has begun to take its toll on him. Lydia too has been busy--taking care of all the kids--and an additional three. Lydia's sister, a single mother, was diagnosed with brain cancer two years ago. She left her three children to Lydia's care, saying that Lydia could be a better mother than anyone else could to them. Lydia's sister Emma passed away eight months ago. Wil and Lydia have just finished the paperwork for adopting Erica Taylor, Julia Evelyn, and Jonah Gareth.
Erica is seventeen. She is a rebel if you ever saw one. She hates to conform to any sort of rules and has her mind set on disobeying everything that Wil and Lydia say to her. She would be a junior in high school, but she dropped out a year and a half ago. Much of the time she is not at home and often gets back very late and usually of questionable sobriety. Two weeks ago, Lydia began to notice that Erica seemed to be getting more withdrawn and moody. She confronted her about it and Erica admitted that she was pregnant. She doesn't know who the father is and doesn't know what to name the baby yet. She considered getting an abortion, but Wil and Lydia absolutely forbid it. For once, Erica complied with their wishes. Lydia is trying to teach Erica how to be a good mother, but has a feeling that things won't turn out too well for her niece. Erica has come up with some names for her baby (who is due in six months): Lyra Simone, Moira Araceli, Octavia Violet, Connor Alaric, Alec Laurence, or Marcos Jace.

Random event: One of your fathers dies, leaving you a large inheritance.
Earlier this year, Patrick's father passed away. He was the head of a big drug compagny. Just before he passed away, we found out that Patrick would be taking his place. Patrick wasn't sure if he wanted to or not, it's a big position, but obviously the salary is much higher and with our growing family we'd like more money. Patrick took the job. Then Patrick's father passed away, his mother had already died many years ago. We knew Patrick's father had a girlfriend but we weren't really sure how serious it was since she never came to our family gatherings. When we met with the lawyer, we thought for sure that Patrick's father had left some of his money to his girlfriend (who was obviously a gold digger, she was almost 3 times younger than him) but when the lawyer read the will. All the money was going to us. Including his mansion in Malibu. Patrick's father felt that investing in his grandchildren was a better investement than in his girlfriend. His girlfriend ended up getting an old sail boat he bought at an auction for charity and a collection of old newspapers. She was quite unpleased, it was a funny sight.
Note: I changed Patrick's occupation, I hope that's okay. Also; I will be out of town for a few days, just wanted to let you know =).

That's okay; I think a lot of people are out of town. I just wanted to get this up for the people who are going to be around, but the next round definitely won't be posted until after New Year's.
Have a nice trip!

They were surprised by how much Adrián and Adelina looked alike, so just out of sheer curiosity, they had a blood test done. Adrián and Adelina were brother and sister! After talking to the agency that handled the adoption, they were able to determine that the pair had the same mother.
Annabella and Sapphira have both brought home boyfriends. Annabella's boyfriend, Rowan, is a very nice young man. She recently confessed, in secret, to her mother she thinks he's "the one"

Gotcha.

Mine/Example
Notice:
-I did not use the namebanks for the boy/girlfriends, but I did use them for the new baby.
-I used these random events:
--One of your children has just experienced his/her first crush.
--One of your children is expecting!
-I included a ton of drama in the writing. And I mean a ton.
-I changed the formatting of the family so the multiples were split up. That makes it easier to put in boy/girlfriends.
-Because there was so much writing, I put the pictures in a seperate post. Dial-up people would thank me. :)

Wow; where to begin? It’s been a hectic seven years!
First, Heather and Tasha agreed they wanted to change their surname to Blackwood. We agreed to have the names changed, and everyone is happy with the situation.
Then, a team from Daniel’s youth karate class was chosen to perform at a festival in Austin which got national attention. Daniel is making nearly twice as much now, and we have moved into a larger house a few blocks away from our old one. Before, there were two or three people in each of the five bedrooms. Now, Nathan, Benjamin, Nora, Madeline, and Tash each have their own bedroom upstairs, Heather and Trent have separate bedrooms in the basement, Daniel has a bedroom on the ground floor, and Jace and Kathryn have portioned rooms in the attic. There are far fewer fights among the children now that they have their own space.
Notice:
-I did not use the namebanks for the boy/girlfriends, but I did use them for the new baby.
-I used these random events:
--One of your children has just experienced his/her first crush.
--One of your children is expecting!
-I included a ton of drama in the writing. And I mean a ton.
-I changed the formatting of the family so the multiples were split up. That makes it easier to put in boy/girlfriends.
-Because there was so much writing, I put the pictures in a seperate post. Dial-up people would thank me. :)
