Some one once said that a life ends and a new one begins- I now fully believe it. Today is the one year anniversary of my Mom's death and we have a new daughter. Maybe my Mom helped choose her new grand daughter and in her gentle way, told us it was time for a new life. We are going to Assumption Catholic Church for a 5:30 PM mass to celebrate the life of Baby B's Bubu.
Like daughter like Mother- Baby B has fallen under the spell of her blue eyed father.
Yesterday, we obtained her birth certificates- old and new; obtained her Marshallese passport. There were 5 families at the US embassy completing US visa and immigration paperwork. As we were at the DHL office and dropping off the package of paperwork to Honolulu, I prayed for a speedy trip to HI. From there, it goes to Guam and then to the Philippines then back to Majuro.

I didn't know your Mom, Little Celi, but she raised a wonderful daughter. How great to celebrate her life in the place you start your new family.
ReplyDeleteGlad the paperwork is starting it's journey. Rumor has it that Eric from
Embassy ( what a nice guy!) will travel to DC to plea for baby visa issuance right from Majuro in the future! Hugs to Bina Celita!
Oh you guys we have just now gotten caught up on your blog and oh my is Bina ever CUTE! Yes there will be a bit of a challenge but everything will be worth it. Just remember that Lois and Peter and Jerry and I can possibly help you with some of these issues. Glad that the paperwork has left already an we pray for a fast journey.
