Certificate of Family Membership
July 15th, 2007 by Scott
If a kid ever makes fun of Nicholas for being adopted, I’ll have him ask if he has a certificate of family membership. I bet he doesn’t. I’ll have Niko tell him that means the government can come and take him away from his parents at any time.
Oh, and I’ll also key his parent’s car.

I like the part about the “rights and responsibilities attached thereto.” You can haul it out when he’s a teenager and complains about mowing the lawn or keeping to his curfew.
That is awesome! Congratulations, there is something nice about the “officialness” of it all. (Also, I am more than happy to help form a daddy posse if anyone needs to get roughed up or brought to justice.)
Oh wow, it is good to see this. Thank you for sharing it. Congratulations! (And, no, you will not be telling Reece that they can come and take him away!)
I’ve complained lately that birth, marriage, and death certificates all look identical whereas in the past they were unique. (Of course, I have seen all of these in the past few years.)
It’s nice that the courts of Santa Clara are doing it right – what an incredible certificate. I love “It is further declared (a la knights of the round table) that said child is a member of the JOHNSTON FAMILY.” Perfect! 🙂
Hmm… guess we didn’t put anything about violence in our little questionnaire, huh? That certificate warms my heart. Go get ’em Nicholas Johnston!
