Janeen, this is simply bricktacular. I am relieved to know that Joe is a proponent of the Oxford comma. Congratulations, fellow citizen. Love and hugs!
An amazing piece of writing. If only every citizen would sit back and ruminate on what being a citizen means. Not that they could do it this well, of course! ❤️
My American friend, Jessi, who came with me because she wanted to be part of it, told me she's still on a high from it. I hope she doesn't mind me quoting her: "It was a humbling experience. It made me feel so prideful and lucky." I've had numerous texts and DMs that echoed that sentiment, and showed me that my American friends are quite stoked that I did this.🇺🇸
All in all, a wonderful experience, then, right? I'm smiling here. I love that you wanted to become an American citizen when so much is going on that might discourage others. And I love that so many of us are happy you're here!

Beautiful piece and a warm welcome to the grand experiment of red, white, and blue!
Thanks. It feels good to be here.
