Passport, check!
Passport, check! I took the boys today to the post office to order my passport. I have gotten my photo taken twice in the past week at CVS because the first one was terrible, as in, horrible, and I could not live with customs laughing when they saw it. So, happily, I have a decent photo now coming to me in my passport. whew!
Guess who was in line in front of us for our passport? An adorable Korean baby girl who looked to be about 9 months old. The family was all there applying for their own passports. Her grandparents were holding her. It so looked like the images of foster mothers and fathers I have seen with the Korean babies. (the foster parents in Korea seem to be grandparent age) It was ALL I could do to not ask to hold her and bombard them with our adoption story. I managed to keep quiet, but believe me, it was hard! Her and Anderson stared at each other for quite a while. A little awesome, huh? :)
And the number one great thing about this passport: It will take me to South Korea to get my baby girl.!! Now that is amazing!

ReplyDeleteyay for passports!!!!
ReplyDeleteAw, I love that there was a Korean baby in front of you in line! And yay for a passport!
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have many "signs" along your journey... that's awesome!
ReplyDeleteSometimes there are just signs, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteI can imagine! You must have been just bursting!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about wanting to burst out & tell people you see...and having to keep it inside.
