Was that for while she carried him around in utero? Those crazy Slovenians. Would be cool to have triple citizenship by the time he turns three.

When you're outside the U.S. (and for all I know when you're in) they allow you to keep your old passport while they're beavering away on your new one. Then when the new one is ready you bring it to the embassy and they cancel it before handing over the replacement. Adam has a U.S. passport of his very own, and is written into his mother's Polish one as well. We haven't gotten around to getting him his own Polish one yet, but he does have dual citizenship. Unfortunately not triple. Slovenia doesn't go around handing out citizenships willy-nilly just for silly little things like being born here. I did not have to remit.

My husband had a big bonfire for his Yugoslavian passport. I cried because it was so full of the patina and stampage, but it is with great pride that he now carries the Croatian version. The U.S. passport is still the more hassle-free of the two. Did you have to remit your old one? My husband had a big bonfire for his Yugoslavian passport.

I was wondering - what kind of citizenship does Adam have? Slovenian, Polish (?), American or all three?
