Me and my family

Zindi is that you when we you went on that trip china? And I remember those pics of your daughter, so cute!!!

Im very sorry to pry ZIn. But i thought Marrying a US citizen and all that goes with thatis like 99% guarantee on citizenship?

No, means you can come in on a green card. Still not a citizen. My mother's been in the US since 74 and she's still not one.

Ohhh okay now i understand /cower

Yup, those are from my China trip!

I've been on green card for 10 years I was qualified for 8 years for citizenship. I guess I was just not in a hurry.

Even then, being married to a US Citizen isn't a guarantee that you'll get a green card...or for sure it doesn't mean you'll get to move to the US right away. Here in Chicago, it takes 3 years to go through the green card process...and if my husband hadn't been Canadian (therefore relatively free to cross the border as a visitor) he would've had to stay away for the three years while it was being processed.

It's an ugly ugly system. Anyone who says it is easy to immigrate into this country has never done the paperwork involved. Becoming a citizen is an extra step...and for a Canadian an unnecessary one

My mother told me about the nightmare of coming over from the Phillipines. My brother and I were fortunate that my father was an american sailor. She's had her paperwork ready to fill out and be processed but she's afraid of taking the test. =(

Aww, Zindi! You and your family are beautiful! *pinches everyone's cheeks*

OMG that pic of your lil girl is sooooo cute! She is absolutly beautiful.

You are very pretty too, wow.

Zind, what part of the country do you live in? Your husband looks familiar to me.

Thank you guys for the compliments we live in the San Francisco Bay Area but my hubby is a Conneticutt boy =)

Ahh the Bay area...I used to live right outside the Bay area....right next to Walnut Creek, a place called Pleasent Hill. North of you I believe it is. Miss California a lot.

California is the best We have a cool governator! ;0)
