We get to be Lillian’s parents!

June 9th, 2009

It’s finally official! We are so, so thankful everything went well today, and we know this is definitely going to happen now! It has been an emotional ride these past few weeks. Adoption is always nerve racking until it’s official. It seems like the adversary works hard to stop good things, such as adoption, from happening. We know Heavenly Father is stronger than the adversary, and nothing but His power could have helped everything come to be.

We are so thankful for Lillian’s wonderful birth parents. We hold them in our hearts with great love and respect.

Today was also Lillian’s 2 week birthday. She is growing little by little, and continues to be such a happy baby! We love her so much!!
