Current Status...Still Holding

I know I am the world's worst person to keep blog updated, but I guess eventually is better than never. I have been caught up in the end of school and getting ready for shows and trying not to get disheartened as we go through the immigration process. We have sent in packets of information, forms, more forms, more of the same forms and then finally more forms. I know it sound like lots of paperwork (and it has been) but it has also been a situation where God has been guiding the whole process. Currently Gee has been through the biometrics, a police background check, the finding of all his and my documents, and finally the embassy interview. We have been told verbally that his visa has been approved, but the software for printing his visa has not been working. Tomorrow will be 1 month of waiting on the software to be fixed. The State Department Visa section said they will start 'pushing' things if after a month nothing has happened with the printing of his visa. Tomorrow makes 1 month so I will be making phone calls, lots and lots of phone calls. In the end we only started this process after I got out of the hospital, so really it hasn't been too long. I have read about some people who have waited years for visas, and I realize that 6 months is actually really good. So this is where we are, simply waiting for God's timing...
