Patience

To be perfectly honest, I'm losing mine.  Our I800 application finally arrived on our officer's desk yesterday.  Something like 35 days after our LOA.  Lots of people have their approval within 3 weeks.  I talked with our officer, and she said that she wouldn't get to it yesterday, but that she would approve it today.  I am supposed to get an email from her today that she has sent our approval to the National Visa Center.  So far, no email.  And it is 4:11.  I am so ready to get this part of our wait over with.  It is hard to be patient knowing that Maggie needs us.  And we are so, so ready to see that little face in person.
