Well Friday all our paper work was finished, got good wishes from the judge and the social workers involved, slightly more grudgingly for them, and we've been celebrating all weekend. Miss Grace Amelia Smith is now officially our daughter.

Never to forget her birth mum our lovely Natasha but I'm sure she would be happy to see Gracie settled.

So all family came and and celebrated even my sisters turned up which was amazing and very very nice of them.

Steven has a best dad mug which he is keeping filled with coffee at all times and very much enjoying himself again amazing as he's a fairly shy man even around family but he's been having a great time.

Grace was centre of attention which seemed to suit her and she's not stopped smiling since Friday afternoon even in her sleep !

So alls good here for foreseeable future.

Julie what wonderful news! Now you have even more reason to get better yourself.
