Rahul and Ramesh have finally settled in. It has been hard for all of us, but now they really like being with us. First they had a bit of a problem with me, as they weren't used to a motherly person around them, but now they even come to me and want to play.
Cat has been a great help. Although she speaks a different dialect then the boys, all three of them now a bit of Hindi. As I'm not to good at it they are using it like a secret language!
Their scars are healing well and they are the only things remebering them of their mother.
We have planned a trip to India next autumn with all four children. We are planning to visit Ramesh and Rahul's dad and Cat's family too. We are all looking forward to it.
Rahul is so attached to Julian, it's unbelievable! They hang around all day and Julian has given him his old computer. If you are looking for one of them, you are sure to find them in the office!
Cat has found a competitor in Ramesh, as they are both very sporty and love running around outside. Only two weeks after their arrival she had already tought Ramesh how to ride a bike! Now there is no way to control them.
Ramesh and Rahul don't fight as often anymore, as they just go out of each others way if they see a fight comeing up. Also, I think they want to impress Cat, but who knows how long that will stay...
The fish they had didn't survive the journey, it must have been to much stress all the way from India to Scotland, but we decided to get 6 more, one for each family member. It was a great way to start a "normal family", going out and chosing the tank and fish.

We are very glad to have these two boys with us and hope the other children are as happy as we are.
