He will be coming on October 30th. He will spend the next week helping his family pick olives from their farm. All of them have to work together 12 hour days for like 2 weeks to finish it all. They have a big olive farm.

I can't wait to leave the house to pick him up at the airport.....his flight will get in at 5pm Oct. 30th...I wonder what time I should leave..and I wonder how bad the traffic will be to get there. Its usually pretty bad getting to JFK...at certain times of the day.

I have to make some calls to try to figure it out...and get my butt in gear and get the house cleaned really nice so that when he sees his new home for the first time its as perfect as can be.

I am sosooossososo happpppyyyyyyy!!

Timeline: 13 month long journey from filing to visa in hand

If you were lucky and got an approval and reunion with your loved one rather quickly; Please refrain from telling people who waited 6+ months just to get out of a service center to "chill out" or to "stop whining" It's insensitive,and unecessary. Once you walk a mile in their shoes you will understand and be heard.

Thanks!
