Hey guys, how are you? Today it was my nephew's baptism and my sister in law's brother and I were his Godparents!
Everything went well on the ceremony, it was so nice! The baby was asleep and then cried so much, poor baby!
His name, Αθανάσιος (Thanasis). Most of our relatives helped us and we were on a amazing small church on western Thessaloniki. On baptisms and marriages people here offer bonbons, these were ours, also having his name.

and this is me, after the ceremony, obviously relieved

My baby Thanasis, I promise to be beside you and love you like a second mother, my boy!

Thank you Nick! Unfortunately, I don't have any other photos yet, when our photographer has our photo albums done, I'll be posting some photos of the baby!

Little Thanasis is blessed to have you chosen as his Godmother, Despina. :hug: I'm so glad to hear the ceremony went well today!

You look beautiful and happy -- just the way a new Godmother should!

I'll be looking forward to seeing the pictures from the ceremony later on.

Blessings to darling Thanasis!

Thanasis and I thank you all so much! For us here being a Godparent is a big deal!it was a big honour for me..and I love this kid to pieces! @Carlea his name means immortality and is taken from Άγιος Αθανάσιος (St.Athanasios).

That is awesome Despina, and the little one has a Godmother that is a bird person, can't get any cooler than that...
