It’s Official!

Today we went to the government office to receive our official adoption certificate.  We are now officially a family of 5!  As we were leaving the government office today, Will Hudson began to cry.  It was the first time since we have had him that he has cried.  He just quietly sobbed.  It made me cry a little, too.  We have learned quickly that this little boy is smart.  Did he understand what was happening?  It actually was a great attachment moment for him to understand that we are now in his life and able to console him.  He quickly fell asleep in Megan’s arms. 

We have had fun watching him reveal his personality to us.  He is so happy and playful when it is just the three of us.  He is more observant and quiet when we are with the group.  We have also loved seeing the different smiles of Will Hudson.  We hope you enjoy them, too.
