We finally had out INS interview yesterday. Sorry for not posting earlier, but it was a very tough day. I will skip the grueling details of the day, but we were finally notified yesterday evening that our case would be approved and our approved I600 could be picked up on Monday. We are very excited that we were approved, but picking it up on Monday is another day delay. We were hoping to be in Hanoi on Monday doing our VISA interview. Nevertheless, this is a step in the right direction. We once again canceled our tickets to Hanoi and rescheduled them for Monday evening. We are now hoping to arrive in Hanoi on Monday, have the Visa interview on Tuesday, and pick up the Visa on Wednesday. We will come home after we have the Visa in hand. We have to have this Visa to bring Jett back in to the US. Please continue to pray that this will work out for us. We are so ready to come home and see our families and especially JR and James. Also, please continue to pray for us as we strive to complete this emotional process.
On a lighter note, we went out walking this morning. We walked down to the river and looked at many boats. The river here has alot of trash floating in it and also a lot of bamboo. It was nice to have a change of scenary. We then walked around town and went to the grocery store. Jett is on his second nap since we have been back in the room. You can see how tired he is. In one of the other pictures of Jett is a guy that works at our hotel. He has been very kind to us and always holds Jett. I keep saying Jett will look like him when he gets older.
Jett actually slept for 5 hours straight last night. This is a record for us and we were very excited. Before this, his longest stretch of sleep was 3 hours. We seem to have a very active newborn baby on our hands!
If you can't recognize the difference in the post, it is DeanAnne posting and not Jon. Maybe he will be back posting in a few days. I am not quite as informative as he is and talk alot more about Jett than the scenary. Thank you all for the continued prayers and support. Your comments are greatly appreciated and mean so much to us. These comments help us get through each day. We read and appreciate them all.
JR and James: We love you very much and can't wait to see you. I loved seeing you on Mr. Kevin's computer yesterday. We are proud of you for being strong during this time as we work to bring baby Jett home. You both be good for Mema and don't let her get all of my sugar. Remember every time she kisses you, it is from me and daddy. We have lots of special prizes for you when we get home. Remind Mema that you need to say your memory verses at night for her so you won't forget. We love you so much and are so proud of you. God is proud of you too for being such big boys while we are gone.
love you bunches,
Momma and Daddy
