I-130

If you need a babysitter, just let me know! My daughter is great! haha

I know the feeling...I can't wait for my Finn to get here! Our families may just get here around the same time actually!

Long commute for a babysitter (even if it is just Seattle to Oly-Town). I am definitely keeping my fingers crossed that they both get here soon. If they do we should get together and celebrate. Bessalamati and all that (I think that is "cheers" in Finnish... but it has been ages since I spoke with any Finnish people. Yksi kaksi kolma nelia ... I used to be able to count to ten).

Good luck Ms.Sheka! You'll be fine. As long as your mailing box isn't over 7 lbs., because I want to keep the record. ha!

Mark-well, I meant anytime you and your lovely wife want to come to the big city for a night out! But yes, we should get together when everyone's here. That would be so much fun! I don't know that Bessa word but you have the counting right! I've been taking Finnish classes in Bellevue since November. It's one tough language to learn, and makes no sense!!!!!

To be honest with you, The only thing I used were paperclips and a plastic bag for the pictures. However I organized eveything very well with the paperclips. It's all about being organized. I was reading how some people used lables, coversheets, elminated sheets etc...I said being an overachiever is good but I'll keep it basic and to the point.

For my petition, we taped the pictures to paper, and we kept all the different forms together with paperclips. But the petition itself was held together with a binder clip. We got approved okay. Just don't use staples!

OK, I'm the opposite side of the coin from everyone else. I hadn't discovered VJ yet when I sent in our I-130. I didn't even have a cover letter. I just threw all the forms and pictures and documents in an envelope and sent them off. No paper clips or anything. And I didn't know I should make copies of everything, just in case, so I didn't. But we went through in an average amount of time...so it's all good.
