We dressed him in his finest duds,
Man is he handsome in a suit!
I know I am biased. The extra special thing about his adoption was his opportunity to be adopted on National Adoption Day. The state went all out and brought in local mascot's and super hero's.
There was face painting and games. Yummy food, and lots of celebrating. Even the man with the big white beard braved our warm climate for a visit.
He was a hit with the middle children. The big were to big, and the small were frightened half to death.
It was AMAZING and special!!
Wild thing was dropped off on our doorstep by his Birth Mom when he was alomost 8 months old. She promised a return that never happened. I worked hard to get him added to his Brothers case. He and Bubba are full biological siblings. I knew if I had any chance of keeping him I needed the courts on my side. He has not always been an easy child. Poor kiddo came with so many issues due to poor choices in utero made by Bio Mom. I do have a great relationship with Bio Mom and now know she wanted him to stay with his bio brother and with us. She new she was not prepared to raise children. I often tell her thank you for such a choice addition to our family. We would not be complete with out our Max man.We love you goose, welcome home!!
I do truly hope that "one day every child will have a family!!"

He is so lucky to have you, and you him! What a fun sweet boy you have. And of course, to have siblings together is a rare and special blessing in this system...

Love your new home. I can't believe it's already put together.
You are amazing. How wonderful that he is yours and you are his.
Congratulations again!
Love that little face. You have the biggest heart ever. I fall in love with every one of your kids, through you.
You and your entire family are wonderfully beautiful. We are a adoptive family (2 angels as infants) and are foster to adopt parents waiting for a placement. We hope the Lord decides to expand our family. You and your brood are an inspiration. May God Bless and keep you all.
This post brings tears to my eyes. I can't even imagine the life these children lead....and the joy they find when they get a family like yours. Thank you for your example to the entire world....and for sharing your love and story! Love you guys!!!!
