She's an American Girl!

It's official! As of 9 am this morning (Hawaii time) Sarah is an American citizen. Our interview this morning was more of a review of her paperwork, a couple of signatures and 30 minutes later, we had her certificate in hand. Sorry, but cameras were not allowed and she fell asleep on the way home so she is napping now. When she wakes up, we will get some pictures of her with her certificate and post them. After that appointment, we applied for her SSN and will have that in a couple of weeks. Then we applied for her American passport and we pick that up at 2pm on Monday. Praise God for everything falling into place and coming together. We know that it was all planned that way but patience is not our strongest quality. But everything is in His timing.
Thanks again for all of your prayers and all of the help we have received from all of you.
More later

WOOOHOOOO!!!!! YES!!!!!

Since you like to point out my typos in grammar use, you might want to know that "patience" is spelled that way instead of "patients" this way. Unless you really did see patients and then you would be right.
Love you're(ha) little grammar queen and smarty of a niece.

When God is in control, everything comes together perfectly. Couldn't be happier for the two of you and the boys. Patience isn't one of my virtues either....still haven't received my raise. Our prayers are still with you until you arrive safely home. Hugs and Kisses. By the way, only 145 more days until we arrive in Germany.
