Waiting Siblings Spotlight! Philippines 8136

Today's Waiting Siblings Spotlight is for twin brothers--"A" and "B," born 9/22/98--and their younger brother, "C," born 3/27/00.  We cannot post their pictures, per Philippines' country requirements, but a summary of their report follows. 

These brothers come across as studious
and fun-loving--a great combination!

The siblings were voluntarily surrendered by their older siblings.  They were orphaned by their birthmother and birthfather. The older siblings stood as their parents but they cannot provide the needs of the children.  A is a healthy and active boy.  He is always excited to attend his classes.  He can read simple sentences in English but still has problems in reading and understanding long paragraphs and stories in English.  He can cope up with all of his lessons.  He also likes to dance, draw, and play sports such as basketball, volleyball and badminton.  He also likes to read and spends time reading books and comics at the library.  At home, he is responsible and performs his assigned tasks.  He has good relationships with his roommates and his siblings.  He offers his help to others when needed.
