So we had our court hearing today. We started at 9:30. Everything went really well. It took about 30 minutes. We made a short presentation of our case for adoption, the doctor from the Baby Home said a few words about Alexey, and the social worker talked about us. Our lawyer basically said that we made a good case and had nothing to add.
The lawyer representing the government also said that we made a good case and would therefore not oppose the application. The judge agreed and granted the adoption, to take effect fifteen days from tomorrow. So, we're parents!

CONGRATULATIONS! We are so pleased for you both & Alexey. What a wonderful & blessed future awaits all of you! Does this mean that you will be able to leave with Alexey in 15 days to come home to Canada? Hugs & Kisses to the Holgate Family!
Love

I had a dream last night in which John brought Alexey into the office. I'm so happy that this was prophetic, and you'll be able to bring your little boy home to meet us all.
Congratulations!
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Very good news guys, aka, Mama & Papa?
Cannot wait to see this little heart breaker back on Canadian soil.
