If you know us, you know that, although Adam is not Andrew's biological father, he has raised him as if he was for the past 6+ years. Adam is, however, Andrew's Dad in every other sense of the word. We celebrated the biggest day of Larsen history on 7/23/09. That's the day that Adam "officially" became Andrew's one and only Daddy. This was a day we always dreamed of, and we are so blessed our dreams came true.
It all started as we followed my attorney to the courthouse...
Andrew and I patiently waited for the bailiff to bring us in to see the judge...
He was so excited to "officially" become a Larsen...
Here is Andrew with his attorney and our dear family friend, Dave...
Judge Johnson granted the adoption...
Our family couldn't be happier...
Andrew felt the need to imitate the statue...
I thanked the love of my life for helping to make all my dreams come true...
Andrew opened "Congratulations" cards. We were so lucky to have my mom and step-dad and Adam's dad in town to support us through this...
Andrew with his Gramma and Grandpa...
Victory!! Time to go home...
But not before a few more pictures...
Time to celebrate...Andrew is a Larsen!!
Any man can be a father, but it takes a very special man to be a daddy. I'm so glad Andrew has such an incredible daddy! :)
