Tripp and Wendy Waynick

Nathan Harris Waynick, who was adopted and raised by Tripp and Wendy Waynick, was accepted By the University of South Carolina.  Dream big and never give up seems to be the motto the Waynick family.  Nathan was in and out of a children's home until the age of 12 found his home with the Waynick's.  This compelling story became viral in the news and social media when Nathan's emotional grandfather was caught on camera reading the acceptance letter. There is more to this story than just a young man's dream but also the mindset of a family that grew together and learned from each other. Their family journey is filled with lessons of happiness, growth and gratitude.
