Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
Hope you got to spend it with your family. I did.
An update on our adoption. We have finished our dossier. It will now be sent to DRC to be translated and then filed in the courts. It is slow, but we are making progress. I can't wait for Nathaniel to come home.
Speaking of Nathaniel, we have decided to changed his American name. We originally were going to call him Nathaniel James, but after watching some adoption education DVDs, we have decided to keep his original name,Gabriel,as his middle name. So his new American name will be Nathaniel Gabriel.

My mother has made a stocking for everyone in our family over the years. She made one for Nathaniel this year. I hope next year he will be able to enjoy it next year.

My husband bought me a necklace for Christmas with the names and birthstones of ALL my children, including Nathaniel. I LOVE IT!!!!!

My computer is messing up so I can't post the pictures. I might try again later.

Blessings,
Melissa
