I cook rose.gif .... he cleans....good.gif

I do ALL the cooking and ALL the cleaning and take care of our 3 year old son 24/7. She works, sleeps and eats.

Right now I am trying to get our son potty trained... I think we are making progress....

I wish my fiance and I could be happy as you guys are. I envy those of you who have a drama-free life. I wish you both the best in your future smile.png

I thought this was the happiest day to find out my fiance got approved and that soon he will be here but as of right now I am feeling a lot of sadness & somewhat a little hurt.

Why the sadness and hurt? He got approved, you guys will be moving forward soon! You should be happy!

Well, I shouldn't be so hard on you, since you are new here, but we have rules in the USA that need to be followed. I feel it's my place to try and help cj out here: Men will be defending each other no matter what.....secret7vf.gif

There is no salt and pepper on the eggs. I see no butter on the toast. You failed to provide at least 3 choices of jelly/jam. There is no coffee/juice/milk/Crown~n~Coke to wash down the food with. The rose is a nice touch, but the TV remote would have been better. And where's the REST of the bacon? That's barely enough for a 6-month old baby! We are cost cutting oops8rh.gif hahaha need more funds for my wedding..lol

I appreciate your effort, that was a nice start; but hope you plan to step up your game soon. And please tell me you woke him by gently rubbing his feet so that he was not startled awake too suddenly... Nope no feet rubbing,,, gently? Not at all!!!! hahahah I yelled at him "HONEY!!! 3 times and he did not even notice my effort......did not see the breakfast I made! hahahaha.... I think he must been half awake! So the 4th time yellled at him again...."Look infront of you" He asked "Where?"..... Oh my he was half blinded he's not seeing the table infront of him, the rose, the plate.... yayyyyyy". But I love him more.... I guess patience doesn't only applied during K1 visa process! IT'S A LIFETIME!!!! dancin5hr.gif rolleyes.gif

"LIFE is a CHOICE". Live your life with happiness.....or spend the rest of your life being miserable and feeling sorry about things done.

My Fiance and I learned to enjoyed each other company, have FUN together... yes FUN.... being apart wasn't easy but we chose to make a way how to continuously grow together regardless of distance. Now being together is more challenging, this is the moment that whether you like it or not... you will spend the rest of your life together.......

As I said life is a choice........and hey the boat rocks too.....but we deal with it with LOVE..... remember how the journey started it is because of LOVE.........

And if it happens we've done something wrong.....we suffer the consequences right away, but it is not too late to make it right and learn from it and not to do it again.

There will be always DRAMA. My Fiance and I chose to take it lightly. Communication is the key.

A real wonderful couple you are cj and Dahlia!! You guys are an inspiration. I can't wait to be with mine soon. It's kinda weird I'll be arriving first in the US before him (he's in Japan) so will cherish time with his family first ;-)

Hi,

Sharing is our passion. We like to share happiness and love. wub.png
