OUR ADOPTION PASSED COURT IN GHANA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't even have the words right now to tell you how CRAZY EXCITED I am because I can hardly breathe! There are so many emotions flying through me right now!!!!!!!!
First let me tell you real quick that we had no idea that we had a court date!!!! Our case was presented yesterday and we passed with flying colors - but we just found out this morning - and WOW do I like it better this way! For the past week or so I had a feeling this was coming and was checking my emails like a nutcase hoping to hear that we had a court date scheduled. But then our agency program coordinator called with the news this morning that we had already had the court date and passed - I seriously think I almost shot through the roof. God. Is. SO. FAITHFUL!
So, you may be wondering what this means - this means that our girls are OFFICIALLY ours in Ghana and that they now have our last name. :) The courts will now print up the offical adoption decree which is the final document we need to file the I-600 form. I-600 approval is the last approval we need before our girls can get their visas and come home!
And the best part?
I can now reveal their beautiful faces online!

I love God's providence that I found your blog and I am blessed to read these wonderful blogs about God's work in your life and those you love. Your five children are Blessed to be yours to raise until His plan is worked fully in their lives. Do the girls get the J names as the others do?!?
