It's Official...He's Our Son - Uh Duh!

Yesterday we went to the courthouse to officially adopt Abraham into the United States. It truly was a wonderful day!!! To know that Abraham is a US citizen now and that he is officially our son - well, it's a great feeling. In our hearts he's always been our son - from the moment we got the call that he was being referred to us. But, in the eyes of the US, he was not ours officially. Yesterday - he legally became a Gresham! Praise God for this incredible miracle of Abraham and that God has led us to this amazing boy - our son Abraham!


Love the expression on his face - so darn cute (I bet you're thinking Tom and I look really cute in this pic too - ha!!)!!


It's official - He's Our Boy! We dressed all of the kids in their Ethiopian outfits - they looked really sweet!


Posing with our amazing family and friends (many family members and friends couldn't make it - but their love and support has been amazing)!!
