Finally Finalized!

On December 28, 2009 Araya became an official, "Doble." The judge signed and sealed the papers. While Araya has been in our home now for 1 1/2 years, and in our hearts for longer there is something that "seals the deal," when you see it on paper.
Last week we spent an afternoon at the Social Security office getting Araya registered for a social security number, while I won't bore you with the details, nothing ever goes smoothly. We are so thankful for the wonderful woman who helped us and who was willing to wait while we rummaged through our "load" of paperwork.
Cheers to "Finalization."
