The question sent itself before I had finished.
The great news is that the final adoption order came through yesterday.
There's a celebration hearing at court, early next month .:-)

What's a 'celebration hearing'?

Mamyalynne

//Celebration Day

Following the making of the adoption order, the Adoption Celebration Day is overseen by a judge and provides the opportunity for adoptive families to celebrate. This is a day for the children, their family, friends and supporters who are all welcome to come, and can bring cameras, even video cameras, to court.//

It's an informal court hearing where the families can get together and celebrate the adoption. I gather that the judge and legal teams really enjoy these occasions.
It's also an excuse for the laydeez to buy new frocks:-)

I hope the Judge and legal team don't celebrate too much.

It's so unseemly when the Judge leads the conga line.

Excellent, and happy, news.

Is this little Princess your first grandchild?
My dad was a miserable git most of the time but he was the happiest man alive when my niece was born. He died before the other two arrived - one of them was a boy and will carry on the family name.

He didn't see my cat as a grandchild or grandkitty.
