The Official Family!!!
It is official - all our children are now really ours!! We completed the adoption today, and it's just amazing! So many years of waiting, and now Austin, Daniel, and Gretchen are really our children legally. Even though the proceedings went very quickly, it was a joyous occassion, and tearful too. Here are some photos of the fun event!

Woohoo!!! Congratulations! I know you have been waiting a long time for this day.
Wow. My goodness, when I think back over these YEARS we've followed each other's journey. It just gives me chills and makes me tear up just to read that your family is now "official". It is such a relief, I know. And to think we'll be right behind you with our next finalization. God is SO GOOD. Congratulations!!!!!
Wonderful!!! Thanks for sharing your pictures!!!

What an absolute blessing - the photos are beautiful.
This week we marked three years since our adoptions (through foster care), so stories like yours are close to my heart.
CONGRATS!!!!
Oh, congratulations! I'm so happy for your family. Loved the pictures. It brings back memories of when we finalized Snuggle Bug's adoption 3 years and 6 months ago. :)
Oh I am so happy for you and your family! Thanks for sharing the pictures! We have been official about 14 months now. It's so wonderful!
