I never dreamed a child would come into my life and rock my world. The process of adopting Austin has been the most unexpected blessing in my life. This wise soul has been through a lot and he shares his helpful perspective on trauma and loss. Austin wrote his first motivational speech in sixth grade. He's chaplain of his private school, leading the middle school in prayer. Since Austin has overcome so many challenges, he's already a spiritual leader.
