Adoption Day!!!!!
Today it is finally, legally, 100% official-Benicio is ours forever!!!!!!!!!! We had our finalization hearing today in Indianapolis. It seemed a bit anticlimactic after a year of waiting for this day, but we sure are happy that it is official! The judge and clerk were very, very nice. The clerk commented a couple of times about how she could tell how much Ben is loved just by watching him with our nephews in the waiting area. I hope you enjoy the pictures from our big day!

I remember that milestone. what a day to embrace. Adoption is such a gift of many events to remember, cherish and make us reflect on what a gift we have been given. Along with our children, Gratitude is a great gift to behold in our hearts! Thank God for the beauty that flows from God alone!
