Managing a household of eight children takes a lot of love and patience - and amazing parents. When six of your children are adopted from overseas, learning to adapt to any situation becomes a survival skill. Having created a riotously happy family, Julia and Barry Rollings thought they could handle anything life threw at them. That was until they received the devastating news that two of their children had not been willingly adopted out by both their parents in India. Much worse, Akil and Sabi had been stolen away from their mother while she slept, and sold by their father. What's the right thing to do in such unthinkable circumstances? Do you accept the advice that "You adopt the child, not the family", and let it go? Perhaps not tell the children until they are older - or perhaps never at all? But Julia Rollings is not one to take the easy road. With her family's support, she takes a courageous leap of faith in deciding to reunite Akil and Sabi, then aged 13 and 12, with their birth mother Sunama. Heading into such an emotional landmine, the outcome could have been disastrous. Instead, it led to a moving journey of discovery to India that has expanded and enriched their family today in more ways than one.
