Paperwork

This is a photo of some (note some) of our dossier paperwork spread out across our living room floor. Note also that there are two big piles -- the one in front is only half, there is another one at the back of the room. And each of these documents was not only notarized, but were also apostilled, which means essentially that the state of Massachusetts notarizes the notary by attaching a big golden stamp to it and putting blue ribbon through the pages (honest!).
Mark suggested we keep the picture in case our child ever asks if we love them....
