My Wife And The Boat That will Bring Her Here

I can now call the woman I love my wife. Though in name only since it isn't officially legal. To us that doesn't matter though. My visit with her in February was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. You see now we need to start the process of of applying for a visa for her. Once this process starts though it is highly unlikely they will allow her to come over and visit me. I can be strong for this but as difficult on us, it is worse for my little son who loves her to death. Just tonight he was telling her that she should come and visit us tonight. He doesn't understand the difficulties involved in this process and when I tried to explain them to him it turned into a 15 minute session of my sons imagination going wild. Needless to say his solution to the immigration visa sounded wonderful albeit not very realistic. He said he would send one of his toy boats over for her so she could cross the ocean with it. When I told him she was to big for one of his toy boats he came up with a story about his real boat that would travel over the ocean and then drive over mountains so she could ride it back. Believe me I would recite the whole story but it gets even more complicated than I can place into words. I wish this process wasn't so difficult. I just don't understand how it can take the length of time that I have been told it takes. I suppose so many people want to marry to come here but the truth is they usually don't find the solutions that thought they would by doing so. This leaves the ones that are truly in love in the wake and not only do we suffer but the collateral damage can exist also. So until this process is finished I must suffer not only the separation from my love, Tamuna, but must also suffer the sadness of her and my children for the separation they feel. My only comfort is that the the love I feel for them will carry me through any hardship. I yearn for the day when I can have my wife and my children together when that happens my life will again seem complete.
