And here we have it! The traditional proud parent picture!
I spotted the courthouse as we drove up. I instantly recognized it from all of the blogs that I have visited.
Everyone kept telling me it was just a formality. Hmpf! Stress on the "formal" part of formality. This was no joke, unlike the medical. This was 100% serious! Thank goodness Ian had to do 99% of the talking. I am so grateful for all of your prayers and support. I have to praise the Catholic Social Services team for preparing our documents and ourselves so well. We are such blessed individuals. I am now exhaused, and in need of a nap before we go meet friends for a celebratory dinner.
Paka,
Michelle
