Congrats Greyson Family

Congrats Greyson Family, You have been blessed with...
Indu Vasanta, Archana Priya and Shankara Masood who are three year old siblings from India. Indu and her brother Shankara are both very smart. They can both read (we are not sure where they learned) and write. They can also both speak a little English. Archana is deaf in one ear, and has a slight allergy to peanuts. As to the extent she cannot eat a ton of them before breaking out, nothing seirous. She cannot read yet, but is close.

Thank you so much for our beautiful triplets.
It has been one year since Indu, Archana, and Shankara became part of the family. Oliver and I could not be happier.
Although we love their names and think they are beautiful, we also call them by come "Americanized" nicknames to help them feel like they fit in.
Indu, or Indie, is very intelligent. She is progressing quickly in her preschool class and has fantastic English. She loves to speak her mind and share her opinion. She has made two best friends, but she sticks close to her siblings. Indie is always standing up for Archana in preschool. She is a very protective sister.
Shankara is very intelligent as well. We call him Shea sometimes. He is not quite as opinionated as Indie, but he does enjoy sharing his mind. Shea is energetic and has taken a strong liking to swimming. He is hoping to join a team next year.
Archana, or Chana, is our most sensitive child. She is much quieter than her siblings, but she has really broken out of her shell and can even read and speak English well now. Her hearing can cause problems at times, but for the most part we have come up with 'signals' that she does with us and her teachers when she cannot hear. Chana has made a few close friends and has a new love of painting.
We were VERY surprised to find that I was pregnant three months ago. Oliver and I are expecting a child, either Phoebe Willow or Finley River, in 25 weeks. We did not think we could conceive, so this child is quite a surprise.
As a whole, our family has adjusted very nicely. I am able to continue working, and I am planning a major trip to India (with all the kids) where I will be taking photos as well. I have published a photo journal with many photos of the kids that has done very well.
Thanks you very much!
