I am home!

Okay, so I am home. Got here on March 17th. And it has taken about 2 months for my mom to post this and start documenting. This is what happens with the second child I think. Anyways, here is my account of it all.

The first few days were a bit scary, I was not sure what was happening and what was going on. I did not want to say or do anything. I slowly started figuring out that I am safe here. So I started eating better, started to interact with people who would come home, explore around the house, speaking a few words etc. Now, I talk many sentences, want to say a lot, want to point out everything to everyone who comes home, want to show off, want to get attention, and just want to live life fully. I love my amma, appa, and sis. I still do not call them by their right names (amma, appa, akka - all get confused). In the initially days I used to get confused with akka, and kakka, and kaa kaa. That was just too much. Now I get the nuances of this language a bit better. Hot is potch. And I love to try repeating whatever is being said. I am learning a new language you see. Amma thinks it is too cute. Appa does not understand most of what I say, has to check with amma and amma also does not understand some of what I say. But I keep trying anyway. Today for example we went to the temple and I was showing them something and amma finally understood what I was showing. So I keep trying. I am able to communicate a lot and am learning something new everyday.

Amma says that it is a bit hectic for her now with two of us. She says she does not get much time with Nidhi to do the things that she used to be doing. But I am loving all the attention I am getting from three of them. Of course, I don't know how it was before for them, so no complaints from my end.
