Passports

We applied for the children's passports yesterday but our passport adventure actually began several weeks ago as I searched every box and bin in our home for every piece of adoption paperwork we have. Because two of our children were born in Haiti, we were told we would need to submit everything relating to the adoptions. Needless to say, I made quite a mess and began to worry I would be missing a document or two and our applications would be denied. After gathering what I could, the kids and I headed to town, picked Rob up from work and made our way to the Whatcom County Courthouse. When we parked we were blessed to find that someone had filled the parking meter! What a treat!
The treasurer's office is on the first floor so we did not need to pass through the metal detector - Jubilee and Jem were a tad disappointed. We put all of the applications on the counter with birth certificates and photos - and that was it. We were not asked for any other documentation. What a relief. God took my worry and once again let us know He is a big God - He is in control of all things - even passport applications.
While at the courthouse we were told that the price of a U.S. passport will be increasing next month. So, if you need one go get it now and save $35.
