      I’ve done almost every sport I can think of for almost as long as I can recall. So I’ve had a lot of coaches. And my best coach was my eighth grade math teacher, Mrs. Lane.  She scared me witless. She scared everyone witless. She wasn’t mean. She did

      What a sweet adoption story, revealing the ups and downs, the challenges, sacrifices, and the joys awaiting those contemplating, (or celebrating!), international adoption. I love learning more about their journeys along with the possible quirks in the system, the abiding hope, and especially the invaluable support available to those who take on this high calling.

      What an honor it's been to know a number of families who've given hurting children around the world new and lasting hope! It's been incredible to witness how these stories spread ever enlarging ripples through the lives of friends and families, and to see communities get involved.

      My heartiest thanks to the courageous families who take on this enormous need with such life changing commitment and results!

      While not one of my favorite of this author's novels, I enjoyed it very much.

      Such a sweet story of an adoption journey. A true picture of love demonstrated by two individuals walking by faith.
    • 5/5
      I loved this story! The characters were deep and fun and the story is just really good.
    • 5/5
      I always love Nicole Deese, but the themes here really cut close to my heart! The selfless love of someone who has the heart of a mother before she even is one resonates so deeply with my soul. The characters are fun and relatable, and everything about this was perfect!
    • 5/5
      It's a beautiful story! Well written, with realistic characters. So glad I tried out this author. I will look for more of her books. The reader did a great job as well. She isn't sing songie as are some fiction readers.
