And we ARE the chosen family for the lil boy in Florida

Now my head is spinning trying to figure out everything. Between Tim's surgery and going there. I'm sure we'll work it out.

Yeah! I can't wait to hear when his transition is going to take place.

Isn't it great to have the adoption worker affirm what the rest of us knew...Your family is the best one for this little guy!
