Exactly a week from her Interview, My Yana got her VISA today ;-) I hurriedly made a few airline phone calls and she will be with me here in San Diego this Friday, (Did I hear champagne, strawberries......).

Actually, I have this certain feelings because I haven't slept and awakened with someone by my side..in a long while. I know in my heart that I would like her to be the last person I see before sleeping and the first one to see in my waking hours....unconditionally.

For all of those on queue headed upstream to NOA2, Interview, Visa on Hand, Fiance/Fiance'e coming home; it was such a culmination of hardwork going through these processes and there is no way going around it. Believe you me, it was thrilling and I would do it in aheart beat if it meant the person I cared most.

:dance: Congratulations! Your post was beautiful and heartfelt. I think most couples do not go through the stress, hardship and plain work that we do to get a Visa. We can only be stronger for this when we are FINALLY together!

Remember to give her time to adjust to the time zone change. That will be a minimum of two weeks probably quite a bit more. So, go easy on her and she'll make the transition in good spirits. Make sure you go slow with explanations of why we do things a certain way. This is a totally different world for her.

Have fun, take her into the city a little and watch out for the sun. She's not completely ready for that. Have her call home as soon as she's feeling up to it. Remember also that this is a huge commitment on her part. Give her some time to adjust.

The two of you are in for a great time. Congratulations.
