It’s Official

May 16^th was a special day in the Youel  Household!  It amazes me how fast this day came and how the Lord gave us just the right amount of peace we needed as we waited for this day to arrive.  The Lord has carried us through this whole adoption process day after day.  I also know that we could not have made it through this time without the support of our family, friends, and birth family.  We are blessed beyond measure by the loved ones that the Lord has placed in our lives.  Unbelievably blessed!  

It was a beautiful sunny morning as we drove to the court house.  Logan could not have looked more cute!  He was in his favorite attire, plaid shirt and sweater vest.  Mr. Adorable stole the show!  Our judge, Judge Jacobson, made our adoption hearing perfect.  She had such a fun personality and allowed our crazy friends and family to run all over the court room snapping photos.  My heart was  thrilled to have snapshots of the day that will always be one of the most important days of our lives!
