Finally!!!!

After 7 months of being home, there have been alot of changes. We now live back home in Georgia and all post placement visits are over. Including the Recognition of foreign adoption!! He is now officially and legally John Clayton. I posted pictures and updates last night. I still have a few to go as this week has been major hectic with the court date and moving taking place in one week. So thankful we can just live now and the few forms left to work with can be done as we can and not time limited that I know of!! Thank you everyone for your support. I am still trying to keep up with everyone coming home and praying everyone will be home forever soon!!!!
