Caden's Adoption

After lots of waiting, the time has finally arrived. Caden's adoption was final on Tuesday (6/7/10). He became Jessica and David's son, Caleb's brother and our grandson and gained a whole family of aunts, cousins and various family that seems too complicated to even try to explain! His name was also officially changed to Caden William Evans. He has been a part of our family for almost two years now but it sure feels good to have the official paperwork done.

During the official proceedings the attorneys were speaking and asking all the required questions. Jessica and David were standing before the judge and Jessica was holding Caden. Jessica started to tear up a little and Caden was wiping the tears from her eyes. It was a very touching moment.

We are so very proud of Jessica and David and excited for Caden and the wonderful family that he has been adopted into. We love you Caden!

The judge commented that we already had a village!
