It is hard to believe that six years have pasted since we meet Jocelyn for the first time. We got a call from The Adoption Center on a Thursday, asking us if we would be interested in adopting a six month old baby girl. After calling Clay at the hospital, we decided to submit our information to the family. We prayed a lot that evening. Friday morning, The Adoption Center called and said that the birth family would like to meet us on Sunday. We went to church on Sunday and then headed anxiously to The Adoption Center to meet Jocelyn and her birth family for the first time.
Jocelyn's birthmother (Keisha), half sister (Brittani Ann) and her grandmother (Cathy) met with us.
Daddy and his new little girl.
The girls were so cute playing together while we talked. They still play great together!
It was amazing how much they looked alike.
The birth family decided to sign the papers right then to relinquish their parental rights. The hardest part for us was waiting the 72 hour waiting period before we got to take Jocelyn home.
