DNA Test

We should have posted this earlier, but we received the results of the maternity test given to Kit and his first mother the other day. It was a 99.99% match, which I'm pretty sure is as close to 100% as these tests get. The reason they perform a DNA test is to make sure the woman placing the child for adoption is actually the biological mother of the child.

It was mixed news. Happy news for us as it means we're that much closer to bringing Kit home, but we also reminded ourselves of how hard each of the steps of terminating her parental rights must be for Kit's first mom.
