Interview July 2nd

[Lace 0]

My interview is coming up. It's been a long hard road getting this far. We both did our parts on the best of our ability. We had our disagreements on how things should be done but not on what's important. That is her being here with me. Not just for her but our future unborn children. At times I just want to scream out of frustration and at times, I even cried. Our journey is getting closer to it's BEGINNING and I want to embrace it. It must of taken me over 40 hours or more but I'm finally finished with all the documents for our Interview date this coming July. I have also complied a list of contact name and numbers for insurances just in case (Senator, Congressman, lawyers, my HR Department, and so on). One cannot be too cocky no matter how well they've prepared. I feel we are more prepared than most and I believe the system will see that. We did more than what's ask of us but that's OK. Do I have to call my fiance up and tell her I love her every night? No, I did it because I want to. We are doing this for ourselves, not to put on a show. The following is what I have already prepare. Feel free to add anything I'm missing. Neither myself or my fiance had any previous marriages or children.
