A special day for us. Our daugther was placed in our arms forever on February 22 and although she became a US citizen upon our arrival in San Franscisco our state does not require you to re-adopt your child once home. As we moved along with our second adoption and started getting all of our ducks in a row or at least trying to we realized that it would be better to have a US birth certificate when we applied for her passport. The other really special thing is that both my husband and I will be listed as her parents on her US birth certificate. She was in our hearts long before we knew her or even held her so in reality this is more of a formality but none the less a special event! We went out to delicious Chinese food afterwards to celebrate, it was a fun day. :)
