Two new additions to our family
Vanity ^ | May 22, 2012 | Self

Posted on 05/22/2012 6:38:10 PM PDT by Graybeard58

Today at the Tazewell County Court House in Pekin, Illinois, our adoption of our children became final. They are Amber Agee and Nick Agee, ages 13 and 12 respectively.

Amber and Nick are sister and brother and have been in our care for about 4 years and we have been actively pursuing this adoption for the past two years.

Rejoice with us. God is truly wonderful!

Our new children will be reading the comments.

I'm pinging a few hundred of my close friends, if I omitted anyone it was unintentional. If you're pinged more than once, get over it. Just kidding, I'll never make another massive ping like this again.

Now this is the kind of vanity we could use more of! Much happiness to all of you and especially to the new Graybeards! All children deserve a loving permanent family. :~)

May the good Lord bless you and your family. You and your wife are wonderful examples of Christian charity.

and get them some new tee shirts .. ha

Believe it or not, both were brand new. We told them to wear whatever they liked that they had and they did. As I commented already - at least they weren't wearing hoodies.

All Nick knows about Bob Marley is that he was some old time singer. I don't know much more than that about him.

I thought you got two puppies or some cute critters.

Instead you have two teen agers.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Pops.

Now all you have left is to love them to pieces and raise them in the ways of our Lord ... the fun stuff.
