An adoption hearing is already one of the happiest events any judge gets to oversee.

Judge Patricia Gardner got to look out into a sea of hearts this week as she made it official.

Michael Orlando Clark, Jr is now the son of David Eton and Andrea Melvin, a married couple who have been foster parents to Michael for over a year.

Melvin told CNN that Michael’s teacher in East Grand Rapids, Michigan approached her with the idea of bringing the entire class to the hearing.
