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.

I am so happy for you that God has blessed you with two angels for your care.

Wow! Most excellent news indeed!

Congratulations to you Mr. and Mrs. GB58 for your Foster Parenting and now Full Adoption -- how cool is that! The Judge could clearly recognize your home as the one to permanently adopt Amber and Nick. I'm sure it made his decision an easy one.

Congratulations to you Amber and Nick. Your actions and behavior had to also be key to the Judge enthusiastically making his adoption ruling. You both should be very proud of yourselves! You both are the ultimate blessing to Mr. and Mrs. GB58, and now they and you can start each new day knowing that you will always be family.

God has blessed all four of you indeed.
