Thread Name: BS: Life With Jeremiah (It's 'Official!')
Subject: RE: BS: Life With Jeremiah
Today we go to court to finalize the adoption. The birthmother has signed all her paperwork giving up her rights and it has been reported to me that she said she feels this is in Jeremiah's best interest. To me, that says she loves her baby beyond words and I will be forever grateful to her for that. However, it is POSSIBLE, although NOT PROBABLE that she could appear in court today (she is not expected or needed at the hearing) and say she has changed her mind. My adoption agent does not feel that this will happen and in the past she has been upfront about telling us when she didn't think things would work out or if there was an iffy situation. Anyway, we would be grateful for all good thoughts and prayers that the finalization goes off without a hitch. Jeremiah fits our family like a glove and we love him beyond measure....can't imagine it to be any other way.
