Today Sophie Rose officially became ours from the Chinese point of view!!! We are carrying the official document saying we have adopted her. We went to get Sophie's picture taken for her Chinese passport. It was a long day but it was spent with 3 other families adopting some beautiful children. All the families reside south of the Mason-Dixon line but it is quite evident that we (Shari & Todd) are the only non-southerners in the group.
We may be talking with a southern Chinese accent by the time we come back to Maryland. Just adding a few pics from the day ... please check out Todd's facebook page to view a larger collection of the pics.

Glad that you have your official paperwork; God is so kind. I love the picture of Ellie and She O Chin. Today I will be praying for you and Todd today Shari and that God would grant you time together in China as a couple. I am thanking God for Todd's leadership today throughout this journey and new adventure in this chapter of your life. And as you seek to serve your family Shari I pray that you are getting the well needed rest and also time to spend with your husband. Enjoy this adventure every MOMENT knowing that God will meet you every step of the day and give you refreshment each morning as the sun sets in China and rises here in Middletown. Love you beauty.Darcie
Ya'll perfect with each other.
Jealous of your time in Beijing!

Prayers,
