Our little train conductor
Digging for dinosaur bones at the Franklin InstituteYEAH! It's official Sophie is ours! She already was but to get her a US passport and a COC we needed to readopt her stateside! It has taken us a long time to complete this part of the process 4 years but we ran into a lot of issues trying to do it on our own
We hired a lawyer and voila we had our court hearing and spent the day in Philadelphia hitting chinatown and the franklin institute.
I got a littls teary eyed when the judge said " Sophie looks well cared for, healthy , happy and well dressed (i had to giggle at that one). So I am signing this Certificate of Citizenship and now the US, and the state of PA views Sophia Elizabeth Rhine as she was born to you."
Geez wasn't expecting that.
She had a blast and so did we!
Belated congrats! We had the same judge :-)!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how big she's gotten! And now a big sister to boot. Congratulations!
