Both of our children were born around major holidays (Christmas/New Years and MLK day). Courts are closed which will hold up the process. So we were in Texas for 11 days and 15 days. We were anxious to share our new family members, but it was also a wonderful time to just bond as a new family. We left our son here for our second adoption, which killed us to be away, but he enjoyed his slumber parties and we were able to spend the one on one time with his new sister.
