This afternoon I took another step forward in the adoption process.  The subsidy paperwork for the state is signed.

The adoption packets have gone to my adoption attorney and now I wait for him to contact me to file the adoption petition.

I have some decisions to make about custody of the boys in the event of my death since I am a single parent.  There is a form I will need to fill out giving the state the information or giving custody back to the state should I die.  Don't all volunteer at once to take the boys!!

It's exciting and scary all at once.  This is a big step.  We have been a family for a while now, but this makes it OFFICIAL.
