Andrew’s adoption was finalized by Judge Hemphill of St. Louis County today! That means he’s permanently our child now and we’ll have a birth certificate and everything to prove it.
Andrew had to “stand around” for awhile waiting at the courthouse.
Afterwards we had some yummy stuff to celebrate.
But Andrew was too worn out from the proceedings.
Please continue to keep Andrew’s birthmother in your prayers. We are absolutely indebted to her for this amazing gift she has given us by choosing us to raise Andrew. We pray that she is at peace with her decision and that she’s able to stay a part of Andrew’s life as he grows.
