Embassy paperwork submitted


Today our embassy paperwork will be submitted! We have been waiting over the last two weeks for one document to be delivered. So we were at lunch and got a call to immediately come to our lawyers office. So we rushed back to the guest house to get the paperwork, then rushed back across town to the lawyers office, in record breaking time. Then our lawyer stated that we had to take this paperwork to the embassy "now, now, now" so we quickly hoped in the van and rushed back (yes, again) across town to the US Embassy. Our hearts were pounding, if we didn't get this paperwork notarized in time we would have to wait another week to submit the paperwork. Luckily we got there and everyone was so helpful. We got everything notarized, rushed it back to the lawyers office, and finally took a deep sigh of relief. Another step has been completed. We are hoping to get an appointment next week but it could take up to three weeks. We continue to love being in this amazing country, but we do miss our family and friends.

In times of stress, be bold and valiant.”

  2. OMG that is just incredible. Rush, rush, rush! Wait, wait, wait! Now, now, now!! You have certainly shown your commitment to Mawerdi and building your family thru positive action and by not being deterred throughout this entire process. I pray that you will be blessed with an early embassy date and be able to leave on time. You are showing your true character throughout this ordeal. Hugs!!
