Waiting for Approval

Ok so we mailed our completed homestudy about 2 weeks ago and had our fingerprints done about 3 or 4 weeks ago.  Those were the last 2 things INS (Immigration/Homeland Security) needed before they approved our travel & send the paperwork to the US Embassy in Benin.  As far as I understand it we will be receiving the approval with instructions within 30 days of INS receiving everything.  Yesterday I sent an e-mail to see if I could get a timeline as to when we would be approved.  Well, today I get an e-mail that they are working on things and they will call me later.  Call me, what does that mean?  Is that good, is that bad.  My patience has grown exponentially during this process but I still don't like being left hanging with info.  Call me, that isn't typical is it.  Wouldn't they send a letter or just tell me on the e-mail.  Call me, what does that mean?  Typical me, it could be absolutely nothing & I am freaking out for no reason.  OK so I will update when I know.

On the daycare babies front.  C is sick but that didn't stop me from kissing her & getting my face into face so I think she has given me the blessing of sharing her cold with me.  GREAT, really I don't mind I just think it is funny that it doesn't matter I will kiss my babies all day everyday no matter how sick they are.  They need kisses to cope with being sick, I can take good old fashioned medication to make me feel better.  Being held and loved on is what makes them feel better.  Fortunately I have a light week so I can just hang out with the babies & the kids can pretty much do what they want. (within reason of course!!)

Will post more when I know more
