He's Ours!!!

The court session went through and the gavel smashed down declaring that:

MYLES MUGISHA GREER IS OUR SON!!!!!!

Next steps: Friday our judgement papers will be picked up from the court (hopefully!) and then the Rwandan passport needs to be processed. We hope to have a better idea of our travel dates next Monday or Tuesday. Hopefully we'll be with Myles the first week in May!!!!

Praise God!
I got tears in my eyes as I read this. So wonderfully thrilled for you all.
Amazing timing that God has in the work that he is doing in your (extended) family this very week in the US and Africa... What a season for all of you Greers.
It makes it all the more miraculous to me.
Blessings!

We just started our application two weeks ago and found your blog. Congratulations!! I can't believe that we could be in your shoes a year from now. We're hoping to adopt a little boy from Rwanda too (with a middle name of Miles!)
