Our Day in Court

Today, we finally had our day in court! After 4 1/2 hrs of testimony, the Judge awarded us our petition for adoption! Finally, it's legal! We're so excited and relieved! We had so much family support and love... and are full of gratitude! Both boys had to testify in front of the Judge in the open court room and did great under so much pressure!
We're happy to finally have this goal reached for our family!

We let the boys pick new middle names... they both wanted the middle initial A... just like Jim. Finally... they both have names that they're proud of!! It's a fresh beginning!
Outside the court house ... some stress relief!
My face is a bit puffy and red from so much crying... tears of pure joy!
It's a day we'll never forget!
