It Is Done

We are officially Leah's parents. B waved her 7 day right to revoke and we were approved at 12:15 this afternoon. Dropped B back home, drove home ourselves and now we are ready for the rest of our lives to begin.

What this means is that B can no longer change her mind. Michael and I are on the hook for another 6 months--we will have 2 visits from a social worker, and then will return to court this fall to be made officially Leah's parents. We view this as a formality, we fully expect to 'pass'.

Happy day!

So, so , so very happy for you. What great news!! Did the father have to sign away rights as well, or just B?

This is so, so, so so, wonderful. I can almost feel the warmth of your joy through the screen. I hope you get many moments to bask in it in the days to come. Big, Big Hugs to all three of you!
