USCIS SAGA CONTINUES...

YES, long long ago in a state far far away lived a family trying to adopt from Taiwan. Emperor Immigration tried stall tactics but failed thanks to an alliance with a sympathetic agent willing to stop at nothing to further our adoption cause. The secret alliance of the 171h information is being completed and has called a truce with my homestudy agency addendum, whereas our pursuit is in motion to further seek out our daughter from the other side of the planet.

Alright, I'll stop. My 171h was about to be sent out but my husband and I wanted to make some changes so we hustled our booties into gear and called a last minute addendum into play. We fortunately have an AWESOME USCIS agent who was kind enough to pull our 171h from being mailed and is waiting for the addendum which was faxed today! WOOHOO. She will also allow us to pick it up from her office! Yeah... that awesome!

Oh and the "foot" is Jabba the Hutt! It is my Dad's foot and yes he only has four toes. He is proud of that foot too; before he retired, he hung a picture of his foot up at work! What's funny is after they amputated the second toe, the big one grew to fill the space! I used to "work" on his toenails as a child... aka: shotgun surgery by a 12 year old on those suckers. He doesn't really have feeling in them either; they jump & twitch on their own so as kids we'd poke them with stuff and my Dad would laugh and try to stop us. Dad's foot is one of life's weird mysteries. Predicting future: Sara will now have to take a picture of her feet to prove that they don't look like that!
