The APPOINTMENT is finally here!!! Prayers have been answered and I appreciate all the prayers.
So, I have been working on my VISA paperwork and I was waiting on the "letter of invitation" from my agency before I could send it all off. I had not received it yet as of the 16th of December, so I decided to call my agency and check on it and ask a few questions about the Visa paperwork. As I was talking to the agency, they sent me the letter and also told me that they would be hearing about some embassy appointments later that day. I was extrememly excited and couldn't wait to hear if it was mine or not. So, the day passed and I didn't hear anything, but hoping for something the next day. Well, the next morning came and still nothing, so I assumed I wasn't one of the ones having their embassy appointments. I decided to email, because that is what a freaking out, ready to get her baby girl home, mom does! :) I got a RESPONSE!!! It stated that her appointment was THIS FRIDAY!!!! Oh my goodness!!! I had another screaming moment!!!
What this means to me, is that since her appointment is this week then my dad and I should be traveling on the 6th of January!!! That is 2 1/2 weeks away!!! This is a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for me!!
God is so good!! Thanks everyone for your prayers and support on this journey!! God bless you!!

Pictures and APPROVAL!!
So the story goes!!
Well, yesterday morning I woke up out of a dead sleep and had to check my phone at 4:30am. Do you want to know what I found?????? :) It was the EMAIL that I had been longing for for almost 7 weeks. It was an update on my sweet Amayah (Egide) and beautiful pictures of her. She was smiling which made this momma extremely happy and truly that smile melted my heart. I had been hoping to see that smile! So, you can probably understand why it would be hard to go back to sleep. I am pretty sure I stayed awake for almost an hour and then I finally went back to sleep, which then I didn't hear my alarm or maybe I did and turned it off but I overslept!! Oops!
I think the smile on my face told everyone that I had got some news because they were all asking today if I had heard anything. If they didn't ask I didn't hesitate to share. haha! Even though I was excited about the pictures, I was still hoping for the approval for my I600-to get my visa and for her to get her appointment to get hers.
Well, it was a long day of school, basketball practice, and then a basketball game. I finally got home and checked my mail!!! IT WAS THERE!! THE APPROVAL! I am pretty sure everyone in my neighborhood heard the scream of excitement. I was jumping up and down and turning flips(lol just kidding....I would hurt something), but I was screaming and jumping up and down. I then had to call everyone in my family and friends and we did the screaming together. I think everyone is about ready for her to be here!! :) I got the approval scanned and sent to my agency and they are working on everything else now.
I have no way of knowing when I will for sure be traveling, but my hope is to be going at the first-middle of January!! Although, this journey has been extremely hard at times and sometimes I wonder if I can really do this, God reminds me I can!! GOD IS GOOD...ALL THE TIME....AND ALL THE TIME....GOD IS GOOD!!!
Continue to pray for me and Amayah and everyone else that is going through this process, because until they are home with you things are uneasy. Thanks and be blessed!
