On August 8, 2011, a beautiful, sunny day here in San Jose, you, daddy and I got all dressed up to have a very special ceremony. This ceremony would finalize your adoption, and we all drove to the courthouse to meet the judge. He was a very nice man, and let us pick out a special present for you. We chose a book called, "Where the Wild Things Are" and we still have it in your room to remember our special day!
We didn't have to wait very long before the judge called us into his office
...It was so cute! Daddy held you on the judge's table & you looked so tiny on his desk.
You were only seven months old when we signed the papers for your adoption! Then, we took an oath to be your mommy and daddy and to love you forever and ever! That part was easy!!
So, this is the story of your Adoption Day! Or as we like to call it, Gotcha Day! Afterward, we went out to a fancy Italian restaurant and had a very nice lunch together. You didn't know what was happening, but Daddy and I knew that we were finally a family! We were so HAPPY!!!! And we can't wait to celebrate your very first Gotcha party this weekend with our family and friends!
All of our love to you always and forever,
Mommy & Daddy
