Not another child of course. Four, at least for now, are keeping us busy enough. On July 17th our readoption of B was complete. We wanted it to be a bit more memorable than the canceled check and the envelope the Final Order of Adoption arrived in so we asked the judge if he would take a picture with us and he agreed so here is the picture from yesterday. Now that the adoption is considered final in VA's book, when we file our taxes for this year, we can claim the adoption tax credit, which of course is just an added bonus... what it really means is we can now apply for B's Certificate of Citizenship since she is still considered a LEGAL immigrant (since only I traveled during the adoption) and should she ever need a replacement birth certificate, she can get one here in the U.S. Yet another day to celebrate!!
Have a great day,
Kate
