Photo Gallery: Adoption Petitions!

The lawyer has send the official adoption petitions to sign, notarize and send to the Clerk of Court! The Clerk will process the paperwork in 30 to 90 days and then issue a new birth certificate for Hayley Elizabeth Hillison! That’s it – we don’t go to court, we just get the paperwork in the mail that everything is done. Sorta anti-climatic but as long as she is ours, I really don’t care.
Her wonderful DSS social workers are coming this week as well to say goodbye. Their time with her is coming to an end and while it is sad, it is also a big step for her towards normalcy. And they go to court on the 23rd as well to report on her status, so they can say they have seen her.
