Not exactly the news we'd hoped for but still pretty good

Kenson's visa appointment went well today. Unfortunately, they did not print his visa. Since the Embassy is closed on Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the Embassy told our processor it will be ready on Tuesday, January 20th. So while we are excited to think we are so close, it's also a bit of a let down because it won't feel like we're done until we have a visa actually printed.

It also brings up a whole new deliema of when to travel. In anticipation of a successful appointment on Thursday, we had been thinking all this week we would probably travel this Sunday. Even if they didn't print the visa on Thursday, they would have had Friday to print it. And obviously that didn't materialize. So now we are trying to decide if we wait until we know for certain the visa has been printed or if we just go and trust that it will be printed by the time we're ready to leave Haiti. If we wait until the visa is actually printed, that could push our travel dates back until Wednesday at the earliest. We aren't just doing an airport pick up as we're visiting Conleigh first so we will have some wiggle room between our arrival in Haiti and our departure. We prayed about it a little bit ago. I cried about not having an 'easy' decision. And I think we've decided what we will do. But the control freak, perfectionist that lives in my soul and desperately wants out is concerned about not making a mistake.
