I Am Officially Yours

This video was taken on Monday. We had three different appointments that day, at 3 different government buildings. At the end, Mattie Gail was "officially" ours. The video takes place as we waited to get Mattie's "Red Book" notarized. The Red Book contains the official Chinese document saying that we are a family. Mattie was a trooper the whole day, as it was a grind for the whole group. At the first building, there was no air conditioning on. It was about 100 degrees, with 99% humidity! Then, toward the end of our wait, they turned on the air conditioning. The video was taken at the second location we stopped at, no air conditioning there, at all. Mattie is really resilient, and patient with all of this, as you can see...
