Lump in My Throat

I am discouraged today. I just received an email from our Home Study Coordinator which stated the following:

"The Home Study will take an average of 90 days to be approved with the Court and then I will be sending you the Home Studies and Court Certification form to process for your Dossier and USCIS."

"USCIS has been taking at least three months to process I-171H forms in our state."

Now I am no math genius but that looks like SIX MONTHS to me!! That is a very bad thing for our paperwork. Some of which was notarized in August. Dossier paperwork is only good for 1 year from the date of notarization.

I put an email in to our Family Coordinator asking her for clarification as to what could possibly happen if our paperwork takes that long to complete. I haven't heard back yet.

Honestly, I am so discouraged to think it could take that long. I am praying that somehow, someway we zip through faster than expected. I know God's timing is always perfect but 6 months doesn't feel so hot to me right about now!!!

Oh Jen, I'm so sorry about that. What a discouraging note but I'll be praying for it to work out faster than the average! You know God's timing is better than the state of AZ :o)

Plus, if for some reason the paperwork isn't valid still you know everyone would be more than happy to redo it for you guys! I know I would!

SIX months? Yuck! That is so discouraging. Oh hun, know that I am praying for you. God's timing is perfect, but sometimes waiting for Him to move is hard. I can't give you a hug, so I'll send online (((HUGS))) Hang tough, sister.

You've been such an encouragement to me. Thank you for making me laugh! I loved you comment, "I ran my online bootie over here to SCREAM YIPEEE and YeeHAW!!" Thank you so much for your excitement and even more for your prayers.
