Hello all! I posted in K1 Forum, but I just wanted to let you all know here too.... It's finally **finally** in the mail today!!! :dance::dance::dance:

After many months of waiting for papers, getting papers, going there to fill out papers, papers, papers, papers- it's finally in the mail today.... of course, now I'm fearing I've forgotten something, but I checked my checklist at least 10 times.... Insh'allah, it's all there and we will pray for smooth sailing.

Funny huh... I'm already a "senior member" and I'm just now filing our K1 application! I look forward to the day of being one of the knowledgeable ones who have already passed many of the hurdles!

Thank you all for your kind words and your cheering us on! Carrie (thanks for the last minute call from Office Depot!), Liz, JP, Mary, Lynne, MK, Rahma, Catherine.... I couldn't have done it w/o knowing you would all be here for me/us! Liz - especially you (& Jenn Youssef) for encouraging me many months ago to do this w/o a lawyer! Y'all are the best!

Many thanks.... and so the ride begins :blink:
