Un-fricken-believable

Running late to apply for Passports.
Finally park downtown, find quarters for meter and walk a block to the government center.
Three escalators and 15 questions posed by Ignacio later we make it through the doors.
Only accept money order/check.
We don't have a money order or a check.
Angel runs blocks away to our bank...I stay with the kids while meter is running.
Ignacio asks if there is a potty and with Emilio in arms we run.
Ignacio makes it to the potty but has accuracy issues so underwear and entire left pant leg wet.
I cringe as I have to put Emilio down on the bathroom floor to help a crying Ignacio.
We make it back to the service center and Emilio poops.
I have no diaper or wipes.
One kid smells like pee the other poop.
Our number is called...we don't have Emilio's Social Security number.
Our photo (taken at WALGREENS) doesn't meet criteria.
We hold a stinky baby up and try to make him smile.
Application accepted...and there is a $60.00 processing fee. Didn't know that.
