We wanted to post an update here for those following along with the blog. Court went well on Monday, as the judge approved Olivia’s release to our care for bonding. Now we are just waiting for the paperwork to come through, so we are visiting her at the orphanage until then. Above is a picture of some of the daily traffic we experience in Lagos!

Once we have her in our care, the bonding will need to be approved by a social worker, and then we can finalize the adoption on the Nigerian side. Please pray that we can get her into our care as soon as possible. Thank you all so much for your prayers!
