OH YEAH! I just got the 171h approval today! The children and I treked across town to the office and the security guard met me out front and handed it off! That's it... the last muy importante sustantivo. We have completed our dossier and it can finally begin translation into Chinese characters... which I can only read about 4 or five characters (I'm better at pretending to read Spanish)! So now I can relax for a bit knowing that all is right in paperwork world! Whew... we are counting our blessing right now for finally getting it all done. Just had to celebre por un momento. WOOHOO! Yeah so excited I came home on the freeway blasting the radio to the Backyardigans (clean music for the kiddies) and wearing my daughter's gigantic flowered headband in rush hour traffic (big pink petals off the top of my head). Had to celebrate and let other grumpy drivers get a feel for the celebration!
And for your entertainment: Here is another spot the hubby in Australia pic for you.
