I'm very happy to report that we finalized Emily's adoption this morning. She's our two-year old, and she's very precious to us!

Here's one photo, and you'll find more, and a longer story on Our Blog.

Congratulations and thank you for giving a child your home and your hearts. I wish more people would consider adoption as a way to create their families.

She is beautiful and I am extremely happy for you all.

Greg.

And for those who are wondering... We're still waiting for the older girls' adoption worker to finish up his final report. He's dragging his feet. Still, we're hoping to be able to finalize with them by the end of this month or the beginning of the next.

Thats awesome.
Congratulations!

It was a beautiful thing to watch you after the judge said she was ours! You are awesome honey! So do you think we are done with children now? Maybe we could just focus on taking pictures of kids now instead of adopting them? lol j/k I love you Sweet man!

And I ditto the thanks to everyone for all the support and encouragement. You guys rock!
