Today at 2:35 PM, Ghana time, a strange sighting was reported at the US Embassy!
*********
A caucasian woman carrying a brown baby reportedly let out some "yippees," and "wahoos," while simultaneously doing some dancing and skipping!
**********
This was a rare sight to see, as the environment inside the US Embassy in Ghana is generally one of complete silence. This is despite the fact that generally there are dozens of people waiting in chairs for their embassy appointment. Usually the only noise inside the embassy is that of CNN news which plays on a little TV for all of the individuals waiting!
*************
The US embassy official reportedly told the woman that she could do anything she wanted to express her the JOY she was feeling!
*************
None of the bystanders asked the woman what was going on, but it was clear by the expressions on their faces that they knew!
*************
The white woman was bringing the brown baby to the US! The white woman had received the VISA she needed to bring home her son!
************
The guards were also noted to smile and greet the woman as she left the US embassy for the last time, them having seen her on a total of 5 different occasions!!
*******************
After MONTHS of WAITING ON THE LORD, the woman and her precious son are heading home this upcoming SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! They will be welcomed home by an amazing and good looking dad and husband, and by 3 wonderful and beautiful siblings!
*************
Oh HAPPY DAY ................
I feel SOOOOOOOO COMPLETELY BLESSED and THANKFUL!!!
What a JOURNEY this has been!
Despite the difficulties, I PRAISE Jesus for EVERYTHING He has done in the last year!!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEE

Bella, the brother you said we SHOULD adopt from Africa is finally coming HOME!
