Our family has been the subject of a documentary being filmed by a young lady finishing her film major at PSU. She’s been working primarily with Kim and Annabelle, walking through the adoption process. It’s been very interesting to watch, as the young lady is Chinese and had little knowledge of the adoption policies and procedures related to China.
She asked me for some video footage of our trip to get Annabelle, so I’ve been scrambling to pull that together for her. Here’s a clip of us meeting Annabelle for the very first time.
A few notes:
*watch for Annabelle to squint–she needed glasses!
*listen for our friend’s son (hey Marcus) to ask Kim, “Are you happy crying?”
*We were absolutely nervous–our translator told us to expect the worst. She said that Annabelle wouldn’t want to go with us, would be sullen and angry, and wouldn’t speak to us. I’ll post a picture of Kim after the video. We were blown away!
