On July 15th, 2016 it became official.
The Lithuanian judge approved our adoption of Benjamin Kostas!
Four years.
So many changes. So many adjustments for all of us. Some hard times. Some great times.
And then those moments that are ordinary but so precious at the same time.
Doing life with Ben is an adventure. We are still learning things about him.
He is still learning about us.
But we are forever grateful the Lord told us to go and get this little Lithuanian treasure!
JULY 15, 2016
We woke Ben up from his afternoon nap to tell him he was our officially our son!
Packing up his belonging from
his first 6 years- pretty humbling.
Driving away from the orphanage.
No longer an orphan!
His first night with us. I think I was up most the night watching him and listening for him.
I was so relieved he was safe and no longer faced the threat of going to the mental institution.
