The website changed from INITIAL REVIEW to DECISION today...

exactly 3 months - 1 week - 3 days since getting our NOA1 in the mail.

I must say, I almost dropped my notebook just now. ( Checked about 30 minutes ago )

Now we are just waiting for the package in the mail, to see what the next step is.

Hoping to spend our two year anniversary together ( April 16h )

Patience is a virtue...

Congratulations!!
