Accidental Adoption

I read this once before and thought it was funny. I reread it tonight and couldn't resist "borrowing" it from another blog! Maybe I should try this next time with my hubby? Think it will work? LOL


Accidental Adoption
Have you ever noticed that you hear all the time about "accidental" pregnancies, but never about couples who experience "accidental" adoptions? Can you imagine:
Honey, sit down. I have some news for you.
What is it?
Well, I don't know how to say this, so I'll just come out with it...I went out to the mailbox today and...well, we got an I171H.
A WHAT?!? An I-171H? As in, we're going to have another child?!?
It looks that way.
But how? We've been so careful! I put away all the blank I600A forms. Didn't you hide our homestudy update?
Of course I did! But don't forget, there was that one night...
What night? (Pauses) Ohhh, that night! But it was only once and we were just messing around. I didn't print clearly. I didn't even use ink! (Pauses again) But it was kind of fun.
(Giggles) It was, wasn't it? I'll never forget how cute you looked getting your fingerprints.
So now we've got our I-171H, eh? But that doesn't mean you'll adopt, does it? I mean, shouldn't you see the agency or something, make sure that everything is okay?
I already did.
...AND?
I'm five documents along.
Five documents! And they're all notarized, certified and authenticated okay?
Just great. There was that one small scare when the agency couldn't see the notary's middle initial, but it showed up just fine under the magnifying glass.
Thank goodness. And you, honey? Are you feeling okay?
I'm feeling fine. As long as I know you are happy about this.
Happy? I'm thrilled! It's always been a shock at first when something like this happens, but of course I'm happy!
