We received notice today that our lawyer received the legal documents we've been waiting for that states we are Leila's legal parents in Niger! Thank you Lord, and thank you prayer warriors. Y'all are amazing! This sweet daughter of ours is getting closer to coming home. Joy joy joy!
Next steps:
Wait for these documents to be translated into English and file I-600 with the US government and wait for the go ahead to go get her!
Our Niger friends are also working simultaneously to establish their official Nigerien nationality.
What an amazing Christmas gift!
Pictures to come from my 2 surprise adoption showers. Wow, we are blessed.

About Me
- The Lawrence's
- We are a blessed family of six with 2 sweet girls and 2 precious boys! We have a heart for the fatherless (our oldest came to our family through an almost 2.5 year adoption journey and our youngest was adopted at birth) as truly we are all orphans until we discover the grace-filled and deeper than deep love that only our Heavenly Father gives. He's so good to love us in all our brokenness! Our non-human family members include 2 dogs, 1 cat, 20 or so chickens, bee hives, and 3 cows. We believe that with Jesus all things are possible, so we dare to dream and live out our dreams. We all have a story - this is ours.
