I'm Adopted!

On Monday, Manda and I had the incredible experience of finally getting to adopt our little girl! She's been a part of our family for almost two years, but on Monday it became official/legal, her name matching ours her birth certificate indicating we are her family. For us, she has been our child for two years, but now she also is in the eyes of the rest of the world.

It was an amazing, emotional, exciting, nerve-wracking experience. It was so cool to see the joy on Mallory's face as she realized she no longer had to be concerned that someone was going to try and take Rain out of our home. It was awesome to see the smile and goofiness coming from Rain as she half sang "I'm adopted!" It was amazing to see 25+ people filing into the courtroom to support and celebrate with us.
