Ok, so I went to visit Fran Jan 2. I returned yesterday Jan 11. When I got to the Miami airport I called my mom. That is when she told me that I had mail from Homeland Security. It was our approval. I got it the day I flew back!!!! I cried in the airport. Fran called me later that night and he cried, too. Thanks for all your support. Just when you think it's taking forever...it comes! Bye!!
