It was a normal quiet Friday. I came howm from work went to my mom's for dinner. After dinner and watching my soap (guilty pleasure) LOL We walked our dogs. My mom started with them both so I threw out her trash and went to chck my mail. I only had one thing in the box, it was a large white envelope from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Ok I thought well I have seen these before alwys confirming my biometrics appointment (which I had done 15 days ago). Then in the light I saw the words NOTICE OF FAVORABLE DETERMINATION" OMG could it be? I thought for a split second and then the reality that I hadmy prints done 15 days ago and the website said they were months behind and so it couldn't be.
I got home opend it and read it. It sure sounded like it was saying I was approved... so what is a newbie to the adoption world to do... Go to Facebook of course and ask all of her new friends/family. If any one would know at 8:15 at night they would. And sure enough they did! It was my GOLDEN TICKET!
That's right I have the GOLDEN TICKET and now panic has set in how am I going to be able to go and accept a referral and travel when there is about $18,000 needed for the first trip alone. PANIC!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
