the adoption

After 2 days of Pete convincing Ellie to go and see the outspoken girl at the adoption centre she finally agreed .

They sat down at the desk with the two workers at the centre .

' So Pete, Ellie what can we do for you ? '

Pete smiled ' Well we saw a girl at the adoption fair and we would like to meet her if possible ' .

Both workers smiled ' That is great and of course but we do need her name ' .

' Oh we didn't get her name, but umm she had brown hair and i think brown eyes, very outspoken and umm, oh yeah she was sat with this younger girl but she was probably only a year or two younger they looked a bit similar ' . Ellie said sounding a bit confused at the end of her sentence.

They four of them sat for around 40 minutes looking at children on the computer that matched her description before they finally came to a stop .

' Her, thats her '. Ellie and Pete said at the same time, pointing at the screen .

' Ah her name is Jenna great kid you know a bit rude sometimes but has a good heart and smart too '.

Ellie and Pete smiled at each other that was the kid that they were going to adopt.

' But there is another thing '

Ellie and Pete looked at the workers confused.

' She has 3 younger siblings, that girl you saw her talking too was probably her sister Izzie she doesn't really talk to the other kids. We have Jenna as the oldest age 17, Izzie as the second age 15, Juan is their little brother age 10 and they have a little sister Lita age 6. Look we try to keep siblings together as much as we can in the system so maybe just think about it.

Ellie and Pete both sat in their car closing the door.

' 4 kids ' Ellie said looking shocked towards her husband.

' Yeah 4 kids ' Pete said smiling at the idea of being the father to 4 kids.
