We had our court date, today, Tuesday, December 15th for the finalization of Jay-R's adoption. He wore his barong to mark the importance of the day of going to tourt (as he called it). It was short, sweet, and final. He has been our little boy since we first laid eyes on his picture September 2, 2008, but now he is legally ours, legally an Allison, and legally a US citizen. Or, as he told me, "Mom, don't forget the A." Okay, legally a USA citizen! We celebrated with ice cream. What a sweet Christmas present. And, for all of you bloggy friends waiting, I am praying for you!

Wahooieee! I love that Jay-R calls it tourt :) He looks so cute in his barong. Eze's is too big still. At the rate he's growing maybe he'll fit into it when he's 16! You guys all look great. Congratulations!!!!
Congrats on finalizing the adoption!!! I love Jay-R's barong :) I forgot to get Jerome a barong while we were in the Philippines. I can probably find them here, but they cost a lot more over here :( Anyway, Congrats again and Happy Holidays...
Hooray!! Congratulations on everything being legal! What a special and memorable day!
We just got news yesterday that our dossier is being processed with the Ontario government!! We're going to be one small step closer very soon!
Blessings!
