Many many congratuilations on your beautiful family.
So very happy for you and your beautiful family, Jen. I'm all choked up and grinning like crazy looking at the pictures. I know you must be so very profoundly relieved that the court stuff is all over.
How lucky the girls will have four older brothers to look out for them as they grow up..... :-D

OH MY WORD JEN CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! This was my prayer but still it took me off-guard!! I am beyond thrilled for you, for the girls, and for your whole family!!!!
Jen,
I am a (somewhat new) foster mother to a beautiful 7 month old baby boy in Orlando, Fl and have been reading your blog for close to a year. I can't even tell you how happy I am for you for the adoption of your beautiful daughters!!!! I am not sure how I am ever going to survive when I have to say goodbye to my foster son (I have had him for 6 months) and it helps me to read your blog and know my feelings are shared by others. Congrats!!!! Your family is beautiful!!!!

What a beautiful family - Congratulations!!!!!
i am crying with happiness for you. such a beautiful family!!
it doesnt matter who bore the children under their hearts for 9 months...although that does make a mother. mama is the person who actually does the work, who doesnt get enough credit, who is the one whose heart breaks the most at the wee one's antics.
congradulations, mama. and daddy. and big brothers. yay for such beautiful children!
Some other folks out there are sobbing with you (even some blog readers who've never met you) - but grinning at the same time. As soon as I saw the girls' photo on the homepage, I knew....HALLELUJAH!!!!
They deserve you, and you, them. You are an amazing human being, Jen, and so are the boys and Shel.
