Six Month Update

On February 21st, 2014 we brought our son home to be with us forever. It is hard to believe that it has already been exactly six months today. Owen has been such a blessing to us. I'm still in awe of God's perfect journey for us. Owen was so worth the wait! There are so many tiny moments each day when Owen does something so cute, like being our little comedian, singing in the car, being such a "big helper" when it really just makes more work for me, or when I mess up and have to apologize to him, he gives me a big hug (or a "squeeze hug" as he calls it) and a kiss and is ready to be silly and have fun again and forgives me right away. In those little moments, I'm still so amazed at how much I can love such a little person that didn't grow in my own belly.

Although Owen has been "our son" since the moment we found out about him, we are so excited to make it official! We spoke with our attorney earlier this week and he gave us the news we have been waiting for, for what seems like an eternity! He told us that our finalization hearing has been scheduled for September 11th at 11am!! We can't wait to officially call our son a "Fisher." Owen Grady Fisher has been his name here at home, at church, etc for the past six months. But as of Sept 11th, we will be able to change it everywhere else! It will be so nice to call the Dr. and make an appointment for Owen, rather then his birth name. It is going to be a day full of happy tears and excitement for all of us, even though Owen will probably have no idea what is happening. We are having some pictures taken that day. As soon as we get those back, we will be completing the slide show we have been working on so we can share lots of pictures of Owen that everyone has missed out on over the last six months, so be on the look out for that!

If you would like to continue to pray for us, please pray for safe travels for us and all the friends and family that will be attending the hearing. It is a little less then three hours away. Also please pray for everything to go smoothly that day!
