Smile Who Knew Pink Could Be So Beautiful?!

We've got it (or at least our agency does) -- that beautiful pink slip! For those tracking, we went into the Embassy last Thursday. Our appointment is scheduled for 9/22, and I'm told we have to stay through Monday afternoon to pick up the visa. Our daughter turns 9 mos. old tomorrow, and I'm just utterly beside myself at the moment -- thinking next week at this time, she'll be in my arms!

I plan to stay connected to the forum after Marissa comes home but probably not as much as I have been of late. Thank you all for your wonderful insights, information, and support. I don't know what I would have done without this forum and most importantly, its members!

Lisa
