Today was a very special day for two very special children...mine!
Alex's teacher has given each of her students a "special day" in which they are the helpers and where they can share a bit about themselves with their classmates. Alex has been counting down the days until her "Special Day", September 25th. It finally came. And she was so very excited. Mommy came in to school and made little books for each of the students containing facts about Alexandra. We read one of Alex's favorite books to the class and she introduced her brother to all of her friends. I wish I had borrowed a camera and captured the fun!
But Daddy had our camera in Texas for another very special day, Cullen's adoption finalization. The agency that Cullen's birthmom worked with is based out of San Antonio. So Shawn flew in yesterday in order to be present at today's court appearance, in which Cullen David Reardon was offically declared OURS!!! And it is with tear filled eyes that I type this news. I look at my two beautiful children each day in amazement and wonder how is it possible that we have been so blessed!

I've been thinking of you guys the past couple days. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations! The video literally brought tears to my eyes the second I started playing it. It's beautiful.
What a day for Alex too. She must have been so thrilled to have you there with her.
Congrats on Cullen's finalization! I popped in to say that Emma really enjoyed Alex's special day (oops, sorry - Alexandra's special day; Em always corrects me if I just say "Alex") and also thought that Cullen was "so very, very cute!"
Emma's special day isn't until the 30th. It has been a long and impatient countdown for us in our house! :)
What a great day!!! Congrats on the finalization! It is so exciting!!!!
