On July 1, 2022 (exactly 2 years after Enoch first came into our lives), we adopted Enoch. Oh my goodness! What a day! I didn't really have any expectations for the adoption ceremony, but it was everything! I loved being surrounded by friends and family and feeling their love and support. And now Enoch is a permanent member of my family - he's my son. My heart is so full of love for Enoch, he is so special.

Here are some photos of the day - at the courthouse, and at our home. We're a crowd! Thanks so much to my sister-in-law, Liz, for taking these photos and then giving them all to me to edit. What a treasure!

Oh my little man... I loved dreaming and then preparing for his adoption. I made a balloon garland for the porch and a little one for inside. I printed off a collage of photos to display in our dining room and then I printed off some larger ones to put out in the yard. We hired an ice cream cart to scoop cones for all our party guests. I love Enoch so much and generally felt like I couldn't do enough to show him how much! I loved celebrating him.
