This book is the story of my son's adoption. It takes the reader through a little of my childhood, my work with youth in my young adult life and finally into the story of Marshall's life in foster homes and the orphanage before being adopted. I continues until Marshall is age 21. There are both sad and happy memories.
This is my true story about how i met the many challenges in adoping my son. You will enjoy this light humerous rading about our adoption. I often dared to go where no man had gone before. I did not realize until I wrote this book how my early life was a preparation for adopting an 11-year old boy.
