Wow, our lives have changed quickly over a span of three years. One being of when we adopted Lillian and the second being Abby's adoption. On Wednesday, November 18th, Abby legally became ours forever!! We were so excited for this day to come. We remember so well of when the judge told us that he was signing the court documents for Lillian to be legally ours and couldn't wait to hear those words again for Abby. I really can't put into words of how it felt when the judge said, "Congratulations." To try and put it into words would be comparing those words to actually giving birth to her. The process was the same as with Lillian's adoption. We met my Aunt Kay at the courthouse and then waited for our lawyer to contact us through a conference call. We then waited for the judge on the conference call and then we conducted the hearing. It only lasted for about 15 minutes but it sure did seem like an eternity.
Abby's Adoption Day!
That night after church we had family and friends over for cake and ice cream to celebrate. Lillian couldn't wait to celebrate. She was so excited that her friends were coming to the house.
One blessed family!
