My Lotus Pond.....n my very first official pet

I am very excited now a days....I have created a small pond in my garden few days back n planted lotus plants in that....in just few days time the plants bore 2 beatiful flowers and has now got three more in the offing....Just sight of the plant is so mesmerising and it sure has a calming effect on u...and now the most important thing...i have introduced 4 different types of fish (20 in total) in the pond last week....these are my first official pets in years....my dad does not like pets much and I remember how as a kid I used to cry for the same and yearn to have some pet of my own...and I have not just one but 16 of the....yes not 20...4 of the fish i intrduced could not survive...3 were eaten by other fish i presume and the remaining one just died :(.....But apart from that I still have 16 of them for over a week and that importtant....long live my pets...
