Tenth anniversary... plus

Been absolutely covered up in work lately so I haven't been on here as much as usual, so, tonight I wanted to take a few minutes to share how things have been going lately.

It doesn't seem like it, but ten years ago last Thursday, I got married. My wife and I met on Nov 16th and got married two weeks later on the 30th. Between the economy going down, dealing with our daughters biological father, and everything else life could throw at us, we've had more than our share of tough times but came out of it all stronger than ever.

During this time, we spent far too long dealing with our daughters biological father in court. Thankfully the judge finally saw the light and revoked his parental rights about 3 years ago, allowing my adoption of our daughter to go forward. We signed the final papers back in August, and I finally got the letter from the state a week or so back saying 'Congratulations', that the new birth certificate has been issued, and everything is officially DONE. It was a long haul for all of us, and while I didn't need any papers to say she was mine, it's still nice to know it's finally 'legal and official'.
 
Congratulations to you and your wife on your anniversary...
AND on your daughter becoming officially yours.
 
Congratulations. So, are we to understand that this will be a very Merry Christmas looking at a very Happy New Year in your household? Hmm?

Congratulations!

Our daughter is adopted. My wife started the procedure just before we met, the adoption was finalized a few weeks after we were married.

My wife has told me the story of how the adoption came about, how she was recently widowed, had no experience with children, let alone a 15 month old baby!

But here she was. Through a series of miracles, an answered prayer for a husband/father, it all came together.

Though there was no one contesting the adoption, the attorney dropped the ball on getting the birth certificate. Took years of phone calls, letters, forms filled out, fees paid, lost, forgotten, ignored, government in-action...

Finally after 15 years, she finally got it!
 
Congratulations to both you and your wife on your 10th anniversary.

Congratulations to you both on the finalized adoption of your daughter.
 
Your right, but I don't limit myself to a few times a year. The reality is that every minute together is a happy one...
 
Congratulations, I remember when you told us about going to get married after a 2 week courtship, well done.
