We went to the American embassy today to get Evan citizenship. It went super smoothly. We had an appointment for an interview today so we showed up bracing ourselves for the worse and got some older guy who went over our paperwork. He was really helpful, helped us with some mistakes in the forms and then told us to go pay for Evans passport and birth abroad certificate. I thought “wow, that was really easy! He didn’t even ask us any questions.” So we payed and went back to give the guy the receipt when some other guy shows up and starts asking us a bunch of questions. He had come just to do the interview. He asked allot of questions about where we met, how long we had been together before Evan was born, then wanted to see Davids proof of having lived in the States. Evan was sleeping this whole time and finally he asked “Is he sleeping? Can I see him?” So David woke him up and the interviewer looked very closely at Evan and then very closely at David and then nodded, “ok.”
So thats that and the end to our paperwork. Thank God! We’re hoping to move to Mexico sometime around the 10th of March, I’ll let you know when we buy the ticket.
Oh yay!! I wanted to ask you how it was going with that. I’m so glad to hear that it’s all working out!! Love you guys. Miss you.
