If you passed this quiz with flying colors, then you too would be able to pass the U.S. Citizenship Test, just like Dr. Tom did today.

As you may remember from this post, we ran into a few hiccups regarding his immigration process. Thankfully it was resolved quickly and the process moved forward just as we had hoped.

Dr. Tom is going to attend a ceremony to be "naturalized" on Tuesday, October 28th. We are so excited to attend with him and celebrate him becoming a U.S. citizen. If you want to join us on this special day let me know.
