Hey friends,

Just wanted to let you know that we got our I-130 approved officially on June 18th! And we filed February 11! That's exactly 4 months and 1 week! Pretty good timing. Now I'm starting to get nervous, I want to move back but not too soon really, I want to learn more Arabic and dh has to learn English! Aaahh! :dance: My BIL is coming into town on Sunday and then my mom on Tuesday so we'll have a great time with them with an extra little boost of spirit (times were getting dull and boring!) Anyways just wanted to share that news, and gotta go update my timeline. Hope those of you out there who haven't yet received your NOA2 will be getting it soon. Take care!

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS

Wow! That was pretty darn fast. CONGRATULATIONS!

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.
