Judge: Let me know when she enrolls in Yale.
Bette: We will definitely do that.
Bette reaches for Angelica and gives her a big hug and showers her with kisses. Tina joins in on the lovefest.
Ingrid: Ladies we need to move this party outside the courtroom.
Bette: Oh sorry.
Judge: Glad to see such a joyful reaction!
Ingrid leads the family outside the courtroom to finish up the paperwork. Bette receives the granted petition.
Ingrid: You did great. Judges don’t often take that much time and care in these cases. You really wowed her. These judges see so much strife and heartache they enjoy these cases more than you think.
Bette: I am so happy, so relieved.
Tina: We cannot thank you enough. This is an amazing day for us. As Bette described we’ve had so much heartache around becoming parents. It was a joyous day when Angelica entered our lives and now she’s fully in both our lives.
Ingrid: Oh Tina I think I have an idea. Now you go celebrate and we’ll be in touch soon.
Bette: Thank you. Thank you.
Bette lifts Angelica up into her arms, grabs Tina by the hand and heads outside the courthouse. Once outside in the sunshine they are met with a surprise that causes their smiles to fall and are replaced by looks of disbelief. Someone was holding a congratulatory sign and bouquet of flowers.
“Congratulations Bette, Tina and Angelica” from Kit, Jean and David. Bette’s nephew David had made the trip up from Philly to congratulate his aunt. The parents stood in disbelief and David had a look of sheer terror at seeing their reaction. He ascends a few steps to get closer to his aunt and her partner.
David: First off I know I am the last person you expected to see today and perhaps the last person you wanted to see today. I did not come to ruin your day. I have three things I need to do and then I’ll be out of your way so you can celebrate as a family. First of all I am here to represent my mother and your sister. She is so pleased that you finally have your dream of being Angelica’s parent legally. She wanted you to be greeted with this gesture and to give you these flowers. Those are from her and Jean. Secondly I offer my own congratulations. I thought I was big enough man to admit my mistake and error in judgment. However, I wasn’t prepared for the joyous look on your faces as you stepped out of the courtroom. To think I had a chance to help give you that joy over a year ago and I was too selfish and self absorbed to see that this was about your dream, your happiness, your family, not my beliefs or my wishes. My mother and Jean have both tried to convey the damage I had done to you personally Aunt Bette. However, today I get it. If this is the joy that today has given you I can only imagine the despair I had a hand in sending your way. I am truly sorry to have done that. I ask for your forgiveness, but realize I may not get it. I am sincere. Finally, I wish you and Tina many happy years together and I know you’ll be a fantastic mother Aunt Bette. You offered me so much love and support as I grew up so I know my cousin will receive that a hundred times over. I wish you the best and again I am sorry for what I did to you back in LA. I hope you still consider us family Aunt Bette. I’ve missed you so much.

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!!
