Henrik and Runa are 15 year old twins from Luleå, Sweden. Henrik is very athletic; he enjoys hiking, hockey, and snowboarding. He and his sister are very extroverted and enjoy hanging out with large groups of people. Henrik is also quite the cook; his signature dish is ostkaka. Runa also is very active; she goes jogging every morning, and likes to ice skate and snowboard. Despite being very athletic, she likes to be pampered once in a while, and indulges herself in Henrik's ostkaka. They are close but their is always a slight competition between them on who's better at snowboarding. Both were raised Christian and speak perfect English. Henrik and Runa are both tall, with platinum blonde hair and gray eyes. They are both charming to have around.
Haukea is a thirteen year old girl from Mountain View, Hawaii. She is she'd like to learn ballroom. She also likes music, ranging from contemporary to classic to modern pop. She can carry a tune quite well but she would rather focus on her studies than become a pop star sensation. Haukea has set her sights on becoming a doctor someday and she always puts her best effort forth in class even if she doesn't completely get the subject. To add to this, she has dyslexia but she is determined not to let this stop her. She is petite for her age, with caramel skin, big brown eyes, and long wavy hair. Haukea was raised Protestant. She is sociable and will fit right in with your family.
Kristjan is a sixteen year old boy from Akureyri, Iceland. He, unlike the other three children, is very quiet and introverted. He was brought into the agency/orphanage when the authorities found evidence incriminating his father for child abuse. Kristjan is traumatized, & untrusting of males and needs good role models for him to regain trust and respect for male authorities. Other than that, Kristjan is more of a homebody, he enjoys reading, writing, and watching movies. However, he is athletic and likes motorcross, and playing tennis. Another thing about Kristjan is he would like to become a film director; he enjoys to stay in the background and watch everybody to see how they interact and then applies that to his films. His films are quite intriguing and the sisters and i are sure he has a future in filmography. Kristjan is of average build, with coppery blonde hair and blue eyes; he speaks broken English. He truly is a delightful young man.
Congratulations on the newest additions to your family and keep us posted on how they are settling in. Have a wonderful day!
