I loved hearing the judge call Rubin
"Mr. Woobin Kim" this morning.
But not as much as I loved it when he called him
Rubin Andrew S______, our son.
Not as much as I loved it when he told him
that Dave and I are officially his parents,
at the same time recognizing that,
although it's finalized,
we've probably felt like a family for some time now.
Not probably, Your Honor.
Absolutely.
