Touching story. If only all adoptions would work this way. Our society needs to encourage couples to adopt. Government should make the paper work less cumbersome.

Please keep being good. Fathering goes beyond sleeping with a woman and birthing forth a child. The presence, acceptance and responsibility are the main issues. And may God continue to bless you o.
I was at an orphanage some six months ago and I felt for those kids.

No wonder! That explains why she doesn't know her real age. She's obviously using a fake age.

Joke Silver 56 years old? Her adoptive parents obviously didn't know her age when they adopted her.

According to kemiashefonlovehaven, Joke was living in a foster home of the Red Cross in Yaba, Lagos, and she recalled that her foster parent was Mrs. Desalu.
