For Purple Mountains Majesties
Today’s a special day for our family… as of today, AJ has lived in the states for as long as he lived in Korea. Half his life in each place.
Also, today I had a very unsuccessful trip to the Durham County Clerk of Courts (Special Proceedings) Office. I thought I had all the right documentation and notarizations to file our Petition for Adoption. But once I got there, I found out that I needed an appointment (who knew?!) and also received a list of stuff I don’t have. Greeeat. I dont know why I thought finalizing would be any easier than the rest of the process! My appointment is for Friday next week and hopefully I’ll have all the right stuff together by then. Remember, the goal is to get AJ’s social security number BEFORE we have to file our taxes. Wish me luck! (gotta love the US government!)
