His friends from school weren’t the only special guests at the hearing. Santa Claus also appeared, making time to visit with each family.

Michael was one of 37 kids who was officially adopted on Kent County’s 23rd Annual Adoption Day this year.

“On Adoption Day, there’s so many emotional stories of how children come to families,” said 17th Circuit Court Family Division Judge Patricia Gardner, who presided over the hearing.

Michael’s teacher, Kerry McKee, said, “The lesson is put a little love in your heart. We rise when we support others.”

This all goes to show how far a small kind act can go. Michael’s smile says it all. We’re so happy for him, his new forever family, and his classmates.
