We have received I-800 approval. Now the cable and then Article 5 and then TA!! That's right, the steps are growing shorter. We do hope we are in the August Travel group for sure- Sooner (meaning July travel) than later (anything that will make them miss less school days).
We have come to grips with the fact Chloe and Timon will miss the first 3 weeks of school if we do go August 24th. That's okay. It can be a dry run for me and homeschooling.
