The Malawi Supreme court ruled in favor of Madonna on Friday. Now to  adopt a second child from Malawi, although the father of the 4-year-old girl said he wants her back. Previously lower court denied the request of Madonna, which said Madonna could not adopt Mercy James because she was not a resident of the southern African country (mmm the mind wonders was there any $$$$$ involved?) Mercy's father said Madonna, one of the music industry's most successful singers, should not be allowed to adopt Mercy. "No one wants to listen to me, I have protested this all along ... I want my child back but I don't know what to do now," James Kabewa told Reuters by telephone from his poor township. "Madonna cannot take her away."

However now no one can stop Madonna to adopt as The Supreme Court ruling cannot be challenged. Chief Justice Lovemore Munlo said "Madonna has shown that she is bold, and compassionate enough to come forward to adopt Chifundo (Mercy) James," In a statement Madonna said: "I am ecstatic...My family and I look forward to sharing our lives with her." Well all l can say is good luck to all!
