Looking for family adopting Maria Lorena and Gaspar (age 7)

Hi,

These are my son's biological siblings and I'm trying to locate the adoptive families and find out if they'd like to keep in touch with us, for our children's sake. We have 3 yr. old Luke and Maria is about 13 months old. Gaspar is 7 years old and there was an older brother, Eduardo, who would be about 9 now.

If you or someone you know may be the potential adoptive parents of either or both of these children, please consider contacting me. I would really like my son, Luke, to have contact with his biological siblings. I think it would mean so much to him, especially when he's older.

Thanks for your time. I'm praying that somehow, someway, we'll all be able to get linked up and that it will be a wonderful thing.

Take care,
Judy

I searched the sibling registry again last night... no luck so far. I also emailed the agency who had them listed on precious.org and both web pages said 'placed with a family'. I'm just hoping it was the same family and hopefully we'll all catch up with each other in the near future.

Debbie, it's good to be here again... for the longest time I couldn't read the script on this webpage and it was microscopic... just a week or two ago, it finally worked and i could read it again! I feel like I've made a lot of progress in just a few days in locating Luke's siblings...

Thanks everyone for your help...

Judy

Glad to hear you are making progress! Hopefully the agency will be willing to work with you.

I just saw the update you posted on your old thread that got bumped back up. How much he has grown! I am so glad to hear he is doing so well!

Thanks, Debbie...Luke has grown up so fast! I can't believe it's almost been 3 years since I first saw his picture. He's as tall as all of his friends and weighs about 36 lbs. now. It's ALL muscle, believe me! He is sturdy and rock solid and ALL boy, as well! He is very affectionate and curious and talks up a storm now! Definitely no problem with his ears.... He's a miracle baby and I love him so much!

That old thread just continues to surface.... it's almost 3 yrs. old as well....

Hey Judy!

I have no info on the siblings, just wanted to say "hi!"

We have our daughter home now and she is such a cutie! Maybe we will bump into each other soon somewhere here in Alabama! I would love to see Luke, I remember playing ball with him at the last "forum getogether" we attended before bringing Zoe home.

Hey Judy if it happens again that the threads are microscopic and you can't read them try holding down the control button and then turning the wheel on your mouse. One direction will make the words smaller and the other will make them larger.

Hi, Dina,

So good to hear from you! I know you're enjoying life with your little girl now that she's finally home!

I hope to see you again soon, too! Luke is ALWAYS ready to play ball! He loves any sport!

Congratulations on finally getting Zoe home! I hope to meet her very soon!

Stephanie...

thanks so much for the technical assistance! I never would have figured that out! I've already tried it and it worked!

Judy

They were just on the photolisings. Maybe you can get a hold of the agency that listed them, and have the agency contact the family. I'm pretty sure I can figure out the agency if you want me too. (It would just take a little time for me to use my brain a bit and browse the agency websites and then I would most likely remember who it was.)
