we made it final today

today we finalized on brother bears adoption. It was an awesome day but for some reason I was more sad today than I remember when we finalized on baby bears. Don't get me wrong the sadness in no way comes from my kiddos - it is from the birthmom - and not knowing his birthmom I wonder so much about her, esp. if she is alright and does she know that her son is loved so much! but it was great and it was really great for my husband because brother bear said - da-da about 200 times during court! here is a pic of our handsome son!

Happy Forever Family Day! That's great, and he is just adorable. I can't wait until Evie is saying Mama and Dada :) Hope you are able to find peace about the birth mom questions, in whatever way that can happen. I would feel the same way in your shoes.
