Our Day in Court


Today is a big day in our lives. We went to the courthouse here in Prague 6, the district where we live, and the judge made our adoption of Anna official! In about a week, we should receive by mail the official papers to 'seal the deal', but this was the decision that secures our legal status as a family once and for all.

Of course, there will still be more to do. Once that paper comes in the mail, we have to return to the courthouse to have it stamped (Czechs love to stamp official things). There will be a few more steps after that, but in the end, she'll have new documents and a Czech passport. Then, we just have to get through the rest of US immigration . . .
