Peeper Has Two Mommies

Things could not have gone more smoothly with our hearing this morning.

AttorneyFriend put me on the stand first, and asked me a ton of questions about who we are, how long we've been together, how we made Peeper, etc.

He also had me confirm the authenticity of all the supporting documents, like our letters from Dr E and Dr T, donor/recipient agreement, sperm donor agreement, name changes, mortgage papers, and so on.

Then he put Shrike on the stand to basically confirm who she is, and that she wants to do this, too.

Then the judge said that she'd seen all the evidence, and it's obvious to her that we're Peeper's parents, and that she feels that she's "obligated" to grant the order to put us both on her birth certificate.

She also said that if we run into any trouble having it accepted and need to have any of the "language tweaked" to just bring it back and she'll do that.

Then she told us congratulations and good luck, and we were on our way!
