Anand's Coming-Home Day!

Today marks Two Years since Anand came home to us. What wonderful years they have been!

We have decided to celebrate Feb 7th, every year, as Anand's "Coming-Home Day".

Arpita woke up early, and began work on Anand's cake. When Anand woke up, and went to the kitchen, he found the cakes baking, and the bowls that had been used for batter empty and ready for him. He loves licking the batter off the bowls.

He then washed up, and I took him to the market to buy something, He was happy to get the chance to hand over money to the shop-keeper.

On the way back, we went to the 'Well-Baby Clinic' where he had his polio drops (Today was also Pulse Polio Day). The nurse chatted with him while giving him the drops and making a mark on his finger with indelible ink. He then waved bye to the nurse and we began moving towards home, when he turned to me with a pleased expression on his face.

"I having (a) good day!"

His Good Day continued. Unexpected visitors from Vathsalya. Another cake-cutting. A big candle to blow out. Cupcakes to distribute to his cousin and friends.

We spent the day thanking God for His gift in Anand. We went through some of our old photos, and collected some of them into this movie (Our first project with Windows Movie-maker...Our verdict: a difficult and unfriendly program to work with. Very slow to start up, kept crashing, we kept losing our work, and this took a major part of our day)

Enjoy this video, and praise God with us for the past two years. Be sure to view it again in a few days. We hope to add on some photos (of the first photos in Vathsalya, and of Anand's dedication)
