Melkam Gena -- Merry Christmas! January 7th is when Ethiopia celebrates Christmas. You can read more about why this is and how they celebrate here: http://http://anticsofailors.blogspot.com/2009/01/melkam-yelidet-beaal.html
Today, we are thinking of our son, Simon, and wondering if he knows that it is Christmas. It has been a whirlwind week, to say the least! Simon's little face and crooked smile consume our thoughts. We both find ourselves just staring at his photo! We can't wait to meet him, play with him, snuggle with him and kiss his little cheeks.
Thank you for all of the well wishes and notes this week! I'm hoping to catch up and respond to them this weekend. I'll also post an update about what happens next. Thank you again for you support! It is very meaningful to both of us.
