Madison's Adoption is Official!!!!!
Today was a wonderful day. We went back to the Civil Affairs Office and received the Official Adoption Certificate. Madison is now officially our daughter. The walk up the six flights of steps felt completely different that it did on Monday. Not better, not worse....just different. Monday I met my daughter for the first time after the climb. Today the end of the climb was a document that said, SHE IS YOURS!!!!! The feeling was incredible.
After our visit to the Civil Affairs Office we went and applied for Madison's passport. Now we wait. The next few days will be free time. We went shopping at the mall and Madison loves her new stroller. At first she protested.....then WOW......she didnt want to get out. Madison is a completely different little girl and she was on Monday morning. She seems to change hourly. She is all laughs, smiles and giggles now. She seems to have advanced about 3 months in just these two short days. She is so precious and looks at her photo album constantly. We will have no problem recognizing her Daddy, big brother and big sisters.

We miss everyone and can not wait to come home.
