Hey guess what!!

SHAINA IS COMING HOME

We received notice on March 2nd that our I600 was approved and then on March 4th got notification of her visa appointment!! Her visa appointment and medical exam were yesterday and all went smoothly! The visa will be approved as soon as they receive the copy of her medical report. So..

TICKETS ARE BOOKED!

Well, for the trip down at least. It may take a few days to get the visa and exit letter from IBESR allowing Shaina to travel so we will not book our return tickets until we get down there.

SHAINA IS COMING HOME

SHAINA IS COMING HOME

It doesn't seem real no matter how many times I type that. I don't think it will seem real until she is asleep in her bed that first night. Her bed! She has never had her own bed before. Never had a hot shower or a BATH! Never had a closet full of her own clothes or toys all for her. Never had a kitchen she could go in and grab a snack whenever she was hungry. My head spins when I think about all of the "firsts" she is going to experience and how all of our worlds are about to change. WOW!

We ask for you to please pray for our travel and transition home!
More to come about what "home" will look like and how you can best support our new family of 5 in a few days. But for now:

Rejoice with us!
