It's official!

Today we are officially Asher's parents. We signed lots of paperwork and then the adoption was finalized. 
We were joined by two other families and helped by several staff the last 2 days who have been wonderful to work with. 
After that, poor Asher was wiped out. He fell asleep in the van again and then we carried him in the hotel and laid him down and he didn't wake up for a couple hours. 
Jonathan went and grabbed some yummy street food for lunch, and then we relaxed in the afternoon and celebrated another in our travel group's adoption of 2 sweet 10 year olds. 

For dinner we went to a great local restaurant where Asher showed us he knew how to plow his food
Then enjoyed a nice walk home exploring the city. 

Now it's mostly waiting. We stay and sightsee until Friday when Asher's passport is issues, then on to Guangzhou with a few days of processing through the US consulate.
Asher is slowly feeling more at ease with us and we pray it continues!
