With our first year of homeschooling winding down, it’s time to reflect back. I’ll be honest. I entered our first year of homeschooling with a little fear and trepidation. Afterall, I was the mom who rejoiced when my first went off to preschool (not the mom with a tissue and a camera). I was the […]
Praise the Lord! Our much awaited, second 797C came today which is that pesky immigration approval we’ve been waiting for. I’ll be able to track our petition as it moves through the National Visa Center and then we’ll wait for our travel call.
