I woke up the next morning and got the kids dressed because today was the day we were officially taking full custody of Carson. Once I had gotten the kids ready I fed them breakfast and got them in the car
Josh: Today is the official day
Riley: Today is the day we complete our family
I smiled at Josh and thought about how lucky I was
Josh: I love you babes
Riley: I love you too
Stella: So does this mean Carson is my brother like my real brother now
Riley: Yes this means that Carson is officially and will always be a Richards
Josh: Carson I want to let you know that Charli will be there but she is not able to talk to you unless you are comfortable with talking to her and Chase will be there but the same goes for him. He will not be able to speak to you unless you want to talk to him
Carson: I don't want to talk to Chase but I want to say goodbye to Charli
Once we got to court I gave the twins to my mom and then the judge called us back to the room
Judge: Okay so I am going to have you guys sign the paper here saying you want to have full custody of Carson and then Carson you are going to sign here and this means that you are okay with the adoption
We all signed and then the paper was passed to Charli and Chase
Once it was official and Carson was ours we walked out when Charli walked up to us
Charli: Can I speak to him for a second
Riley: Carson is that okay with you
Carson: Yea
They walked over and then started talking
Charli hugged Carson
Charli: I just want you to know that I love you and I'm sorry that your father and I turned out this way and that we couldn't be there for you when you mostly needed it but I promise that we did and still do love you
Carson: I know but I have Riley and Josh and I'm not mad at you
Charli: Well it's time to say goodbye but I know they will treat you well and they love you Carson
Carson: Goodbye mom
Carson walked back over to Josh and Riley and then hugged them
Carson I love you guys
Riley and Josh: We love you too bud
We got the twins and celebrated with Riley's mom and the rest of the family ( the kids and Josh)
Once we had gone to dinner I got the kids ready for bed and tucked Stella in bed
Stella: I love you mom
Riley: I love you bubs
Josh: Goodnight Stella I love you
Stella: I love you to dad
Josh and I put the twins down and went to go put Carson to bed
Carson: Goodnight mom and dad I love you
Josh: I love you bud
Riley: I love you too Carson goodnight
Josh and I laid in bed and I turned over and snuggled his chest
Riley: Josh I have to tell you something
Josh: What is it
Riley: All of those years ago when I chose you, I chose the right one
