Why does my coworker Alex look so shocked?
He has just arrived at a surprise celebration for becoming a US Citizen after ten years of expense, frustration, bureaucracy, and hard work!

wow! 10 years?? that's a long time! CONGRATS!
OK, now that's cool!
Stan, thanks for stopping by my blog. The few words I put (since it's technically wordless Wednesday) don't at all do justice to what a harrowing process this has been. He's a hard worker, all around good person; I am so happy to see this happen for him!
How awesome! Please pass my congratulations on to Alex. I'm sure it must've been frustrating for him. Ten years is a long time!
Thanks so much for stopping by and linking up Paula. Have a great day.
Kristi, Live and Love…Out Loud

That is awesome! I attended my husband's naturalization ceremony and it was one of the most moving experiences of my life. And, I suspect, like Alex, my husband had quite a journey to getting there.
