October 22 – Big Day

Yesterday, as I was sharing about our adoption journey and the friends and family we've had come through our home to my MUMS group (mommy group of about 25), Geoff received a phone call from Rodrigo in Niger. We finally have an official court date for our case to be reviewed and decided on in Niger! Please please pray from now until October 22. The judge will be deciding if we can become Leila's legal parents in Niger. Once he makes his decision and it is a yes (because that's what we are believing!), the two month waiting period for anyone to contest the decision will begin. After the waiting period, we are officially her parents in Niger and we can finish the last step on the US side and then bring her home! I'm making it sound simpler than it really is but we are getting closer! Thank you for joining us in prayer over this decision, and over the judge, and over our little girl. Ask and you shall receive!
