I have never validated this either, though I did have a GIANT effing problem in Provi getting my driver's license because I had no proof that I'd graduated from the 8th grade.<br /><br />Good luck getting it all done, Annjeannette! We'll have so much fun when you get here with your dossier of paperwork! Any news on the house?
