As I hung-up the phone from speaking to Marina on my way to bed, she is on her way to the Embassy in Moscow for her interview. It is 7:30AM Aug. 14th for her. Although I am told by many, her included, that we should not have any difficulty receiving our K-1 visa, I am very concerned about the possibility of not receiving it. After a somewhat restless night of sleep it is finally 5:00AM and I decide to get out of bed, go to my computer and call her for the results of the interview. Since we are always on the same page,…. within 10 minutes after I wake she calls me. After hearing her voice for 5 seconds I knew… we had success. She was unable to control her excitement of this great news for us.
She waited approximately 4 and a half hours before she was interviewed, which she said took about 20 mins. of many questions. She said the consular officer was pleasant and his final words were “Please take this Visa as a present from me to you & Bobby on your 2 year anniversary”. (something like that) The first time we met, via internet, was August 14th 2006.
What a great gift! What a great anniversary!
Soon the life I have known for a very very long time will change. Soon the life Marina has known for a very very long time will change also. We must begin to prepare ourselves mentally for this. It will be different……
