Hope's Adoption Day!

December 28, 2011.  Today we received papers in the mail to inform us that yesterday the judge signed the papers to make Hope officially "Hope Atlanta Mesadieu Huinink".  What has been known in our hearts for almost 2 years has finally become official on paper.  It feels good.  To know that she is really ours and that nothing can ever change that.  What a feeling of peace and happiness that brings!  Happy Adoption Day, Hope! We love you SO SO much!

** Edited on 12/30/11: We made a big deal yesterday of telling the kids that Hope is now "Hopey Huinink!!!"  We clapped and danced around the house.  This morning when I got Hope out of bed and carried her downstairs, Samuel announced, "Hopey Huinink is awake!!!!"
