This will be the Best Thanksgiving Ever!!!!

Ok, so the time has come for me to be able to make a big announcement. My ex has signed over his parental rights. We can finally file a petition for Mike to adopt Parker. We are meeting with our attorney today to sign all the paperwork. I cannot tell you what a relief this is. The last 5 years have been filled with verbal and mental abuse, but I can honestly tell you that it has all been worth it. I know that sounds really crazy but, if all of that had not happened, we might not be where we are today. We can finally start a new chapter in our lives. I truly have the best husband ever- he has been there through the good and bad, tears and all. He has always stood by me and has been the one to remind me not to give up hope and tell me that it would all be ok. I would be nothing if it weren't for him.
Mike, I love you with all my heart and cannot tell you enough how happy I am that this day is finally here for you and for our family. Our Family.... gosh, it sounds so good to say that. Parker is finally all ours and you are finally, legally, the dad that you have already been to Parker over the last 3.5 years.
This will be the best Thanksgiving ever, as we have so much to be thankful for. God bless everyone who has been praying for this day. I love you all. Happy Thanksging from ourfamily to yours. :)
