I was suppose to pick Nichy up on the 20th from the airport. When he tried to board his flight in Buenos Aires they would not let him on the flight. Nichy is a U.S. resident but his green card got lost in the mail. He has a document that says he is a resident and one saying his green card is in route. However, the management at the airlines did not see it that way and would not let him on the flight. We panicked for two days and did everything we could to get him here. The last we heard was our lawyers had got a hold of our State Representative and they faxed urgent paper work to the Embassy to let Nichy travel. Since Nichy only had a week break we were running out of time. We decided to all meet up in Panama! Nichy surprised his parents and two days later Gabriela and I surprised them! It was great,and we really feel that everything worked out for the best.
Gabriela is loving Panama and had a lot of presents waiting here for her! Nichy's parents will buy toys and clothes throughout the year for her. It is a good thing I brought a big suitcase! She loves playing with her Abuelo Nicho and I think they are both wearing each other out! Yesterday we were laughing because he took two naps.
Santa came to see her in the U.S. and brought her a pink kitchen! We had a great Christmas this year and feel very blessed. God has answered so many prayers with Nichy's family and our family. We are excited for 2011 and thankful for our health.
