AHHHH!!! DNA's on it's way to the lab!!

I'm freaking out! We are so close! OMG! Breath...

I got an email from Intelligenetics.She said that the sample should be there Monday and she'd call me to let me know when they get it. OMG...what now? I don't know what to do with myself while we wait. I have a ton to do, physically...Kya's room and packing. But Mentally! My mind is working overtime trying to grasp the fact that we are almost DONE! It's finally sinking in!

Kya's FM sent us an email yesterday...She said that Kya will be home with us soon and she will be in pain but will also be happy for us. I'm going to squall like a baby when we take Kya from them.

Thanks for the info! I've been trying to figure it out over and over in my mind. My guess was that the results should be at the embassy Monday oct 6th. And you just confirmed that for me! I haven't even thought of tickets!

Thanks!

Eli is fine but I haven't had good news yet. I have been in PGN for 2 months and have recently heard that my file is waiting for a signature. ( I was also told this a month ago and needless to say, it was wrong). I am hoping for good news this week. I am visiting again Oct 8-12. Let me know when your pick up is. I will be staying at the Marriott. (noellegailey@hotmail.com)
