Our sweet girl is legally our daughter!

We had a great day at court.  Our little girl has legally become a Pinson!  We now just have to wait for the mandatory 10 days to apply for her passport and do more paperwork to bring her home.  Court was fairly long but it went well.  The judge started our case 40 minutes late and when it was almost over she broke for lunch.  The orphanage social worker was giving her speech and had less than 5 minutes remaining and the judge broke for lunch.. When we all got back back the social worker gave the rest of her spill. Then judge checked off the huge stack of documents and she broke again for a few minutes and came back with a positive decision!  In all it was 4 hours.  We are anxious to come back to bring her home for good.  We think we will be returning about Feb 6 for a 10 day stay.  I'm not sure if I can put her legal name or pictures on here so I will wait until I know for sure.
