Jackson Eli Thompson: It's Official and Legit!
Happy Family
Our spacious accommodations at the J J Sun Hotel in Lanzhou, Gansu, China
Our hotel room gas mask
A contrasting feature in the hallway
We are experiencing the "different enjoyment"!
Tasty food (though we are not certain exactly what we ordered)
Jackson really dislikes elevators, but only when the doors close.
Our trusty Steed, with lots of legal adoption paperwork
awaiting our signatures and fingerprints (red ink of course).
Mom and Dad sign the documents,
while Jackson Eli freaks out with the orphanage workers.
Officially adopted in Gansu province, Monday, January 12, 2015!
The orphanage director also had to sign the official documents.
Jackson finally settled down (back with mom) but found the whole morning very stressful.
I think being with his new mom and dad and prior orphanage officials was very confusing.
He and Susan enjoyed the view from the window.
Photo enhanced to minimize air quality issues; yikes!
When we got back to the hotel, JET talked to Grace on FaceTime.
It is official, legal and binding. He is a Thompson now.
