I800 Approval!
Just a quick update to say that we received our I800 Approval!! It was forwarded last Wednesday to the National Visa Center. Things are getting so real now! I took the kids to the grocery store, and in the middle of the store panic began to set in...packing lists, making sure papers for travel are all ready, clothes for the boys, carseats (gracious, I forgot about carseats?), on and on...my mind began to go into overload in the middle of the pasta aisle. I know better than to do that. The little girls were fighting in the cart, Emily was jumping in and out of the cart...in and out, in and out, and the boys were practicing their PIG Latin LOUDLY. Really?? Honestly, the boys were speaking so loudly and so strangely that I received some very sympathetic looks from other shoppers. I about had a come apart. I just said to myself, "Focus. Focus. The Lord will make sure that everything is done, if I lay everything at His feet and work diligently." We made it to the car, and I had to just put my head on the steering wheel and breathe for a couple of minutes before driving home. :-)
