So when is he coming?????? HAYZ WILL BE HERE TOMORROW NIGHT. He is leaving Jordan at noon their time tomorrow....... :dance::devil::dance::devil::dance:

Yes it took more then a year :crying: because I was waiting to become a US citizen for 12 years :crying: (they couldn't locate my A file for the longest time from when I first came into the country, I was 1 month old) and they did 5 months of secruity checks on me!!! Also I believe getting married to my hubby while I was in this process delayed me getting my citizenship. During my final interview most of the questions were about him and not me necessary.....It the whole Muslim thing that has people scared and sometimes I get sad about that!!! And then finally on July 2007 I became a US citizen :dance: and we upgraded...when we upgraded it was only suppose to take additional 3 or 4 months but it took 9 months because they did 3 months Secruity checks on my husband at USCIS... So this Journey has been a very long one for us Tammy....

Thank GOD it's almost over for us and this only made our relationship stronger and full of more and more patience!! Everything happens for a reason and it's GOD will, and this journey was our way of getting more patience in both my husband and I lives....Now we are ready to have a family :lol:
