No turning back now

We just received word today that Sidamo's adoption has officially been validated in the U.S. Yay! I'd love to say that's the final hurdle in the mountain of adoption paperwork, but there's still a bit more to do before we can count Sid as an official American. I believe (and maybe some of the more experienced adopters out there can correct me on this) that we now need to apply for a certificate of citizenship, a birth certificate, a social security card and maybe a passport—though we have no intention of crossing any borders with him any time soon; we're still recovering from our last transatlantic experience. Still, we're excited to be through this part!

YEA! Congrats! We're in the same spot as you - just need to do the birth cert., SS card and CoC...there's a light at the end of this paperwork tunnel, right?? :)
