He's Ours!

We just signed J's adoption papers, and as long as no one contests it on Monday (which we're not expecting, but we legally have to wait through the "Day of Silence"), he's legally ours forever!

On Tuesday we can start the US visa process, and we're hoping to do that as quickly as possible.  My husband and M will be returning to the US next Friday, and the sooner we complete the visa, the sooner we can follow them home!

Thanks for all your support through the last 4 years.  I don't think I'd have gotten through it all without the posters on this board!

I'll try to post some pictures later!

    Oh Captain, I have been waiting for this update. It is so great to hear this news. I will be praying for a smooth transition.
    I just keep thinking how innocently "over the moon" happy M must be. This must be the second best day of his life..First when he became your son..now having a brother. It actually makes me misty with joy!

    I am mostly a lurker, but I have been following your journey. So glad to finally hear this news. Congrats!
