The Golden Ticket has Arrived!

I just found a beatiful envelope in my pile of mail from the Department of Homeland Security.  We have our "golden ticket," otherwise known as the I 171-H!   The US Government has officially given us approval for advance processing of our orphan petition.  This is a very important piece of our dossier!  Now all we need is my FBI clearance to happen (I had to send in a second set of fingerprints) and our family doctor to fill out some papers and we'll be done with everything.  Yeah...one more big item checked off the list!

  1. I saw the picture of the ticket and my heart just jumped in my chest. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, both happy tears of course. Aww, I'm so happy for you Heather. Bring that Anna girl home where she belongs! ~ Renee
