Way to go! All three of my kids are adopted--daughter from ex wife's first marriage, and two boys from Korea.

Update - got a nice gift this Christmas Eve! Little tyke's passport is done (as is his "new" birth certificate as our son) and we can collect him on the 7th January. Was a crazy day finding flights to Delhi (neither easy nor cheap) and applying for visas etc. God willing, all will go well and we'll be home by the 13th January. Quite a red-letter day :-)

Thanks all. To be honest, I'm shittin' myself a bit :-) Big development in my life....to put it mildly...but so worthwhile.
