Thank you so much for bringing Jean-Marie into our lives - as soon as we saw him we knew he was meant to be with us. Yeshe and
Maia welcomed him with open arms and love having a little brother to play with.
Gia viewed him as an imposter at first, during the first few weeks she would cry murder if i picked him up :) She's started to accept him now though. For the first few weeks i was run ragged trying to cater to the demands of this new little person as well as the most demanding 9-month old ever (!) but eventually i learnt how to cope and now everything is going swimmingly. We are considering changing Jean-Marie's first name to something else - purely for reasons of ease - much as we like Jean-Marie we have had quite a lot of people pronouncing it 'JEEN' which is a bit annoying. We will keep Jean-Marie
Chiumbo as middle names though. Anyway - whatever his name is - we love our baby dearly and are so grateful to you for bringing him to us :)
