Adoption Anniversary


Tonight we celebrated their adoption anniversary.  8 years ago we walked into a courtroom as a family of 5 and left as a family of 8.  Still today I can remember moments from that day as tho they just happened.  The endless smiles.  The feeling of relief. The look on the judges face when she first saw them.  (She had never met them.  Minors are rarely included in court proceedings especially ones so young.  Her decisions decided the course of their life.  By the time we reached the point of adoption, this judge had moved to a new community, we requested to have her finalize the adoption, it felt fitting since she had been there from the beginning.) Being surrounded by family and friends, the support and love was endless.
