Tina: I have my passport and Angelica’s birth certificate. Babe you have your license, right?
Bette: Yes, I do.
Ingrid: I’m not sure who are how many cases are before us, but I’ve been lucky here and I’m usually called in before 11am. Hopefully you have plans for a family lunch today that include a big fat sundae, cherry and all.
Tina: We’ll definitely celebrate later today.
The ladies continue to chat with Ingrid about today’s process. They are called into the courtroom shortly before 11am.
Ingrid: Come on Showtime.
Tina grabs Bette’s hand and kisses her softly on the cheek.
Tina: We’re ready. Give me my Porter smile and let’s do this.
Bette obliges Tina’s request. They each grab a hold of one of Angelica’s hands and head into the courtroom. Angelica expects to be lifted up at some point during their walk.
Angelica: Whee, Momma. Wee!
The mother’s laugh as their baby adds some joy and levity to their stroll into the courtroom. As predicted the Bailiff verifies their identities and they proceed to the table with Ingrid.
Judge: I have before me the petition for adoption of Angelica Kennard by Elizabeth Porter.
Ingrid: We have Ms. Porter, the child Angelica Kennard and the birth mother Christina Kennard present today.
Judge: I see there is no father. There was a donor who has released all parental claims to this child.
Ingrid: That is accurate your honor.
Judge: Ms. Kennard are you certain that you want Ms. Porter to have full parental rights for this child? There is no changing your mind should this petition be granted.
Tina: Yes I am certain that I want Elizabeth Porter as Angelica’s other parent.
Judge: Ms. Porter you have a rather distinguished resume here. Are you fully prepared to care for a child?
Bette: Your honor Tina and I have planned for our family for a long time. We suffered through a miscarriage and failed attempts at conceiving. Angelica is our blessing. I was there at her birth and have been part of her life since she entered this world. Tina and I have been a couple for a decade and have not taken this decision lightly. I love Angelica, she is my daughter and I am hopeful that the court finds me fit to be her mother. I cherish her as my child and would consider myself blessed to have legal responsibility for her as my child.

Great chapters. I loved the way you let Bette and Tina forgive David. He understood what he had done and Bette making it clear she wont tolerate any disrespect ever again. It’s good to see that it is possible to grow together again. Maybe Tina will try with her family again too.
You had me weeping. NYer’s don’t weep, we are strong. But, this was worth it. AWESOME story. I agree with the readers, I LOVE this story. You have done a fantastic job with this. I’m ecstatic that Bette was finally recognized as Angie momma. I am also happy that Bette gave David another chance, BUT, warned him that she will rip him to shreds if he harms Angie in any way. CONGRATS to the Porter-Kennard’s. (Peggy, I am adoptable.) I cannot wait for them to arrive in my new hometown of Orlando. WooooooooHoooooooooo.
Absolutely. Utterly. Perfect. Thank you!
Fantastic chapter and it rights all the wrongs that were done in LA. Bette showed her big heart and love to David and Tina was indeed the bigger person by allowing David into their lives again. David had better follow Bette’s advice because I would not want to see what would happen to him if he forgets and disrespects Tina or the baby. And we have never been allowed to see Bette’s Philly side and I think we really don’t want to either. This is a wonderful story and I have loved every minute of it. However, I thought at one point that the gang was gonna be there, I was surprised that they weren’t. Also thought that maybe they would petition the court to add Porter to Angelicas’ last name. Ssurprised they did not. Fantastic chapter anyway. Thanks for posting all the chapters for us this weekend.

OMG what a lovely day, to have four chapters, perfect chapters at that and the last one being the best of the best so for for this story. This NY’er was weeping too, I think the rating should have been TA (tissue alert). I was crying those tears of joy before David, that just was Angie’s icing on the cake. Loved it. Thank you, Md aka Oma
What a great update. From the courtroom, to David, to the family portrait, etc. I so enjoy this fantastic story!
Great story. You had me in tears today.
Yahooo!! Bette’s Angelica’s legal parent. Love this story. Excellent. Thank you.
Finaly is Bette Angie’s legal mother. I’m happy. And it’s great that David came to his sense. What a wnderful story. I hope to read this lovley story a long time. Thank you
Oooooops where the 12th page’s gone? pmsl. Finally The state recognises Bette as Angie’s mother. So emotional this post is, in any way. Family and friends re so important, I am happy, David was mature enough to reckon its misjudgement, came to apologise and reconnected with the Kennard-Porter family. It has been a very eventful day and I loved every moment. Thank you. PPVS
WOW!!! What an Amazing chapter!!! I am glad Bette is Angie’s legal parent. Glad David was man enough to see what he had done was so wrong. Thank you PPS
And thus Angelica became Angelica Porter-Kennard.
Lwsho…props to the perfect way you handled bringing David and Bette back together…that was brilliant! And I still have yet another chapter to read…JACKPOT!
OMG…. this was absolutely one of the best chapters ever. Bette finally being Angies legal mom, and David, just WOW!!! I love this story!!!! Thanks for sharing your talent!!
