Social Security Number

Katerina and I went to our local Social Security Administration Office today. When our number was called, I carried Katerina up and calmly said, "this young lady would like to get a social security card." I also did not feel comfortable putting her Certificate of Citizenship in the mail. By going in person, I got it all back after the person assisting us finished entering the data.

I know the certificate of citizenship is the important thing. But, I still feel like having the SSN is so important. In my eyes, it takes citizenship to a higher level of proof. As if it is the absolute proof of Katerina being an American.

I know it is probably crazy but that is how I view it. In a couple of weeks, she will have a SSN and a SS Card. :)
