One of the most freeing days I've ever experienced was Addison's adoption day. Lorelei's day was special, but it didn't feel liberating or freeing because we knew we still had another adoption to go through before our family was legally complete.
After 6 months of living separated from Chris, hours and hours of legal paperwork, attorney fees, lots of traveling, and a whole slew of other unpleasant factors- We finally got to complete Addison's adoption! June 17th was the special day and we were surrounded with our family and friends, which made it even sweeter. As soon as the case was finished, I was able to breath lighter. I finally felt like we could just be a family without social workers, lawyers, birth parents, home studies, paperwork.. Addison was ours!
After the hearing we all went to the zoo for a fun day of celebrating. Addison LOVED that! And it was such a great time to just relax and be with family. One of the sweetest things about this day was that it meant we could finally go back home to North Carolina with Christopher! We had missed him so much while us girls were in California getting everything done.
I’m glad I found that kinda guy ❤✨❤✨
