A New Buka on the Block!

The state of Colorado has finally caught up to our merry household and declared officially, Josiah is now a Buka!
Today, we all piled into the Subaru, including Jesse the dog, and went to court to hear what the judge would say about these two wanna-be parents.

Waiting outside the courtroom actually took longer than the hearing. Within 5 minutes, we'd all been introduced, our lawyer and adoption caseworker said their peace about our qualities as prospective parents, the judge asked us some choice questions about our abilities, and then it was done...all legal and binding.


The judge was pretty happy for us, coming all the way down from the bench to shake hands and say congratulations! Maybe it was the beaming smiles on our faces that drew him down or maybe he wanted to get a better look at the cutie in our arms.

Josiah gave the judge a hearty smile and a profound... "Gaaaaa!"
