Jill's POV
We are currently prepping for Anthony to come. We already have 3 rooms dedicated to our foster kids, so we painted the boy's bedroom blue and got new furniture and everything else. We are beyond excited to meet him, but we also need to consider that he's come from a likely tragic event in New Guinea, so we may have to be careful with what we say to him. Our agent said that Anthony knows perfect English, which is a relief, we don't really have to teach him too much. Anthony is Matteo's age, so they should get along well. Anthony's birthday is actually June 31, 2021, which is 30 days after Matteo. What we've heard about Anthony so far is all good, so I'm very excited!

Derrick's POV
Anthony finally arrived today. It was tiring to help him get settled in his room, but overall it was a good first day! Anthony told us how excited he was to be here, and other things about himself. He said his dad died of disease back in New Guinea, and his mom, well...he doesn't actually know. He has 2 older siblings and a twin sister. Roy is 19 and was settled in Minneapolis. Joseph is 14 and is in Houston. We could tell he was getting sad about Joseph.
"And my twin sister, Janae...she's in Seattle..." Anthony finished, tears welling up in his eyes. "I'm more close to Joseph and Janae than Roy, though." A single tear rolled down Anthony's cheek.
"It's okay, Anthony, we will help you see them again someday soon." Jill said, pulling him into an embrace, I joined in and then Bodhi and Matteo, and soon we were all in a giant bear hug. Our now 9 person family.
