About three weeks ago, Nikolai once again left for Ukraine. This Christmas's hosting program went even better for us, because Nickolai was used to his surroundings and it wasn't quite as bewildering for him. We loved having him with us for the festivities of the Christmas season, and he loved giving and receiving gifts! :) Nikolai picked out an adorable pair of slippers for me, and practicly glowed as I unwrapped, squealed, and thanked him for his sweet gift. He added so much to our celebrations, and was the best li'l 'Christmas gift' I could have asked for! Below are a few random and cute pictures of Nikolai. 
Our little 'fish'

Nickolai adores riding on any type of boat or machine, particularly Jet
skis....it was hard getting him away from them!
Nikolai's buddy
Nikolai certainly wanted to belong! He would get out his
mini guitar, banjo, egg shaker, or croaking frog and
diligently practice along side us. He sure brought the cute factor onto the stage!

Speaking to one another in Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual songs; singing and making melody in our hearts to the Lord. Giving thanks always, for all things, to God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:19-20
