Talking Finally after 10 years!!!!!!

I had to share this with you guys, i am so excited!!!
After 10 years of argueing with the Home Office, endless court hearings and five court appeals, last month we finally won the right for my inlaws to come and live over here from Sierra Leone in Africa!
They are landing in blighty on Friday night, and with them they bring our 15 year old niece whom my sister-in-law unfortunately had to leave behind when she fleed the war torn country!
My husband hasnt seen his parents or niece for 11 years and neither have the other 6 out of 7 brothers!!!
I can guarantee there will be tears at Gatwick on Friday night!
Unfortunately i wont be able to go to the airport with the rest of the family as my kiddies will be tucked up in bed, but we will be able to meet my inlaws and their grandparents on Saturday!!!!
I will of course be going out on on a shopping trip to buy my inlaws and my niece some lovely welcome presents! Im so excited!!!!!
Its the best Easter present anyone could've ever given us!!!!

Thanks guys. I guess they will have a lot of adjusting to do. War torn Africa to England! But at least they will all have a better quality of life and a loving family around them!
