Consulate Appointment Confirmed!

Today was a great day. We received the email telling us that our requested Consulate Appointment has been approved! Now we get to book plane tickets and go get our son, Ben, in 11 days. ELEVEN DAYS! This has been such a long journey, I can hardly believe it is real! Someone pinch me please?

It's happy dance time! After I read my email, I did the happy dance all the way through the office. I got a screen shot of myself in action. Oh, what? You think I'm joking? Nope!

See the red arrow? That's me gettin' down!

Our appointment has been confirmed for October 29th. This means we will most likely be heading home on October 31st, which of course you know is also Halloween! J will be at the airport with four of Ben's brothers and sisters to pick us up. I suggested that it might not be a good idea for the kids to be dressed in their Halloween costumes when they come to pick us up. Can you imagine? Big signs and posters broadcasting "Welcome Home Ben" being help by a bunch of zombies and witches? Poor little guy.
