I am so excited!!!! I don't have all the details, but I do know that he was approved at 1:30 p.m. his time. I didn't sleep all night, guys. Now, I feel like it is okay to be excited about my wedding. After I speak to him, I will ask him to write a narrative (please forgive his spelling errors) and then I will post it here.

Thanks you guys for all your support. It is so wonderful to meet people who so openly and willingly share their stories, happy and sad, so that others can gain. I can't stop :crying: because this has been an emotional rollercoaster as you all know from experience.
