I have been thinking about it ...

... and I have decided how I feel. Roo's adoption is final, and I am happy. I am happy for P and M, I am happy for Roo. But you know what will make me really, really happy? When she's sealed to them. I can't wait. And I'm looking forward to her blessing in church. Not by her single mother's brother, like it would have been if I'd kept her, but by her daddy. Roo has a daddy who can give her blessings. How awesome is that?

I wish you all could see the picture I got of Roo and her parents and sister at the courthouse yesterday. The girls looked a little underwhelmed, but the looks on their parents' faces was unmistakable - I have never seen two happier people in all my life. I love them, and I love Roo. If they're all happy, I'm happy too.

I'm happy! It's a nice feeling. I think I could get used to it.

I am glad you are happy. You deserve to be happy.

What an amazing miracle that you have been a part of in P and M lives.
