Last September was a big month for us.
We added our sweet little kitty Casper to the family, who has gained 5 lbs since living with us and is in dire need of a diet. Before Casper joined us, we thought Freddy was a lot of work, but boy were we wrong. Casper loves life, is super playful and has also become very very loving ever since we brought Ben home. Even before we had Ben, most of my nights really ended around 5, since that is when Casper likes to get up and make lots and lots of noise, including meowing, scratching on the bed (argh) and knocking things around. It is amazing how much noise a deaf little cat can make!
Then, exactly one year ago today, our homestudy was FINALLY on its way to Korea. Due to some mishaps with USCIS it took us much longer than anticipated to get that much coveted I-600A approval and I was miserable waiting on it. Once that homestudy was sent to Korea, I felt like a weight had been lifted. For nine months we had been waiting to wait. Now we were officially waiting for our referral!!!!
Cats are like alarm clocks, aren't they? We don't even need an alarm clock in our house! LOL!
ReplyDeleteWhat a year it's been for you guys!
That day that you know you are finally officially waiting for referral is a great day!
ReplyDeletemy cats always want to play at 2:30 am...i make sure to return the favor by waking them up in the middle of their 3 pm nap :
