Today the day is over casted as if it were to rain. We arrived to 3 story buildin
g and went up the stairs to the 2nd floor. On this floor is where they issue the marriage licenses and process all adoptions. We proceed to the office of adoptions. When I entered the office all these emotions started, happy, nervous and I want to cry all at the same time. Before the emotions took over the staff of the office came out.The director of the office introduced herself and explained that the process takes 5 days. 1st day is to meet the baby, 2nd day is when we do all the paper work, 3rd day the govt. process all the paper work, 4th day we get her passport and on the 5th day we receive all her paper work for the adoption.
While we waited we filled out our information that needed to be verified and they checked our passports. I awesume it's to verify that it is us. We also had to sign a piece of paper that states we have 24 hours to accept our daughter. Then we finished the paper work, we went window to anxiously awaiting their arr
