Happy (gay) father’s day!

It’s 19th March today and therefore St. Joseph’s day. In Spain it’s father’s day, so it couldn’t have been better timing when we got the call from Miranda this afternoon to tell us that the decision maker at the placing authority has confirmed the panel’s recommendation for the match with Boy H. It’s now official! Although we’d been told that it was almost certain that this would be the case, it was fantastic to have the confirmation. We should get a letter tomorrow or Monday, and shortly after we should get the matching certificate, which is the official bit of paper that will allow us to apply for paternity and adoption leave from our employers. It’s really happening. We are so excited.
