At approximately 11:30am Brian and I were sworn in and then said yes to the following questions (plus a few other ones)... "Are you at least 21 years of age? Are you at least 10 years older than the child? Have you formed a bond of affection for the child? Do you agree to be the legal parents of Mya and Ana? Do you know that once you accept, you cannot change your mind at a later date? Do you agree to treat them as you would your own child? Do you have the ability to provide for them and educate them?" Then the judge pronounced that she finds it in the best interest of the children for us to be the adoptive parents, and then that was it! Ana was getting a little loud during the questioning so she decided to put on some eyeliner, eyeshadow, and bronzer. That was about the only thing we had to keep her occupied, but it worked.
These photos are all at the courthouse: 1) Judge Nelson and the Wayman family 2) Adrienne, Clint, Paige, Jessica, Waymans 3) Guardian Ad Litem Sherene, Waymans, case worker Lisa.
These were the main individuals that helped us with everything legal (and more) throughout the past year, which allowed us to keep the girls. THANK YOU!
