Today was Julian's readoption day. Finally the end of a long process. It was a wonderful experience since we were represented by a fellow Guatemalan adoptive parent and personal friend "Bart". We weren't able to take Alexis because she was in school but we did take Mandy and J.R.. The court reporter recognized J.R. from his readoption which took place last year. She was stunned on how he's progressed. Julian was all smiles, waving bye bye and being his usual happy self. My kids thought Bart was great and while we were waiting for copies of our final order he sat on the floor with them and played.
It's a very interesting process in Florida. If you don't recognize the foreign adoption, your child does not have the same rights and previledges as your biological children would have. Now Julian has all his rights and will receive a Florida Birthcertificate!
My husband couldn't resist but to kiss up all up while we waited!!! Here are some pictures.
