| Signing papers in triplicate with thumbprints |
We went to the adoption office again today to sign the final paperwork and get Eleanor's official adoption certificate. She woke this morning unsure of her surroundings but being very brave about her situation.
She's still unsure about what is happening around her, but there is good evidence that she was very loved and we expect that the bonding will be strong when it happens. The experience of us and others is that well cared-for children have an easier time transferring the bonding to their parents.
