Today the boys are insulating and drywalling. This home reno season has been rough but I love that we can look back and remember the time we basically built a house together. That teen life.

Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family.
