Adoption Decree

The day after returning from our beach trip I, along with Eden, head to the mailbox. Inside I find an envelope from the Clerk of Courts and immediately my heart rate increases. Inside this is what I find:

Now therefore, it is hereby ordered, adjudged, and decreed by the Court:

That from the date of the entry of this Decree herein, the said minor is declared adopted for life by the petitioner(s) and that said child shall henceforth be known by the name of Gabriel Hunter Burnette and Eden Michelle Burnette.

Our hearts are overjoyed by this news. We've always known in our hearts that Gabe and Eden are ours but it feels good to know that the State recognizes it too.

Again, we are blessed!
