Happy Birthday Wonchu

Our little Wonchu is four years old now. We baked cake and had dinner together at Sonrisa.

Wongchu is bit small for his age. He had series of health problems when he frist arrived. We are very happy to see Wongchu growing up. His health has improved since he arrived. He has learned few words and he is starting to talk. He is very playful and loves to go to school. He has learned to read and write the alphabets.

Our Home

Since we moved into our new home in Chandole, we have been doing lot of maintenance work in and around the house.

We have finished painting inner walls of the rooms inside the house. The children's rooms looks much cleaner and brighter now and the kids love it. We are not painting the outside of the house for now.

We have finished building the chicken shed we started last month with Yohan. We got 15 chicks from a local hatchery, 5 died, 1 got lost, the remaining 9 are doing great. We have placed the shed behind the house away from the children so it shouldn't cause any heath issues.

Children

Jyoti (up) and Saraswoti (down, left) have just recently joined our family. Jyoti and Saraswoti both have settled in very well with brothers and sisters at Sonrisa.

We have talked with the Principal of Shivapuri school (where other kids go to) so the new kids can start school immediately. The Principal has agreed to take them in even though admissions have been closed for a while. We are very thankful.
