Endless Bureaucracy
I was going to write a bit about the adoption process and the non-stop paperwork involved, but as I was writing it I was boring myself silly. So I figured I would just summarize it as follows:
- We started in January of 2005
- We had to do a lot of paperwork
- It took a long time
- We had fingerprints taken about 100 times (and had to get them 'updated', even though decades of forensic science has shown that fingerprints don't actually expire)
- We have been in the official waiting process since October 2005
