I can't tell you how happy I am with the whole situation! Now I just have to wait 3 months until our court date and find an adoption attorney.

Congrats! I remember when you started this journey and you were so nervous and taking a foster/adopt child. I'm so glad things worked out for you and your little princess. Best wishes for an awesome future together.

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.

It's Official!

We had our adoption hearing a week ago today and the Princess Peanut is legally my daughter! I sleep much better at night knowing that no one can/will come and take her away from me!

There is something miraculous about looking into that little face and knowing that we now officially belong to one another!
