We Finalized Today!!!

My DD had her first and hopefully last court appearance today. I said the only way I ever wanted her to be in a courtroom again is if she is a lawyer or a judge! It went quickly and smoothly. Everyone was so excited and of course she had no idea what a big day it was. She has been our daughter from day one, but it's nice to know that NOTHING will change that now!!!

Yay !

Congratulations ! In a few weeks you'll get a new birth certificate, and that's very cool, too.
