Anyone else adopting from Kenya?

Hello,
I am a Canadian living in Kenya. We are in the process of adopting our 6 month old daughter, and are looking for other families who might also be adopting (or have adopted) from Kenya. If you are, or have, I would love to hear about your journey!
Many blessings to you all...

Kenya has very long residency requirements that make it difficult for some - they require a 3 month in-county bonding period, and then you must also remain in country through the court process which follows- which is another 3 month minimum.

If you want more info feel free to pm me!
