Elsa's readoption

Well, today, Elsa officially became a U.S. citizen. In order for that to happen, I had to re-adopt her in California State court (I adopted her already in the Ethiopian courts).

It was a momentous, joyous, peaceful, fun event.

Elsa cried pretty much the whole time, except when she was screaming. I am not exaggerating - poor Oma, who was there to witness it all, will tell you it is true.

Sigh.

Ah well, at least it's officially done. Many thanks to Oma for the help and support, and the Elsa transport afterward!
