It's Official!!

We went to court today to finalize Rachel's adoption. Our attorney is awesome, and we ended up with an amazing judge too. I had to answer most of the questions, and I totally cried when he asked me to share how I feel about our little Rachel girl. Our attorney told me that makes him look good though. LOL!
The judge asked each of the boys how they feel about Rachel. I thought it was very cool that he included them in the process.
After we were done Judge Davis had us come up and take pictures. He let each of the boys take turns wearing his robe. It was an awesome afternoon! We don't feel any differently than we did yesterday, but it is nice to know that she is now legally ours. We are so, so grateful for our little girl and for her birth mother who made the greatest sacrifice any mother can make. We are so blessed.

What a great day! We're glad it was a positive experience, fun for the boys, and that Rachel is legally a member of our family. Like you, we are especially grateful to her birth Mom for it all.
