Social Security Office...

Apparently you need to have your babies social security number in order to claim them as a dependant….. who knew??? Sometimes I wonder what motherhood has done to my brain. As we are doing our taxes I realize that we haven’t gotten Tru’s card in the mail yet. So I called the Social Security Office and they never got his application from the hospital!!! This brought on something that I absolutely dreaded….. taking my baby down to the Social Security Office and waiting there for hours and hours to get his card.

Yesterday we went down, drove around the parking lot and then turned around and drove home. There was no parking and a line out the door and around the block. No thanks. So I went today before they opened hoping that it wouldn’t be too bad, I was in and out in an hour. It was an interesting hour though, considering that they guy in line in front of me got arrested for telling the officer he was going to “get him”. Oh I’m reminded why I didn’t want to have to go there, but it’s over with, we made it out alive, and no strangers tried to touch my baby, so that’s a plus.
