On this day in 2008,
I was driven to a courthouse
in California.
On this day in 2008,
I was wearing a pretty pink dress
and a smile.
On this day in 2008,
I didn't quite understand what was going on
But I knew it was good.
On this day in 2008,
My technical stepmom
became my only mom.
On this day in 2008,
I found out that Valentines Day
celebrates all kinds of love.
Happy Adoption Finalization Day Mama!
