Along with other important days in the year, March 4, 2010 is a day we will never forget and will always celebrate. It is the day that Collier Greer Jordan became officially our child. It was a wonderful day! Nana and Pop were here to attend the court hearing with us. We all got dressed up and went to see the judge. There were 4 other families who were also having their final court date as well. Our attorney said that adoptions are the judges favorite kind of cases. They(the judges) get their picture made with the families and even get their own photo album of their adoptive families. Collier was definitely the "belle of the ball". Everyone was ooohing and aaahing her. Pop was standing in the lobby holding her while we waited for our copy of the final adoption decree and he kept getting bombarded by people who wanted to see her and ask about her. A group of women even came out their office to see her because someone had gone to tell them they needed to come see the baby in the lobby! I don't think Pop minded the attention one bit. After our time at the court house, we came home to open presents and eat cake and ice cream. Campbell and Cooper loved Collier's pink cake! Although, we have been loving on Collier since she was born on Dec. 17, 2009, it was great to have the final court date. We have truly enjoyed our adoption journey thus far and look forward to many more days and years with Collier, Campbell, and Cooper!
