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. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system.

Life Lately
An appreciation post of Claire’s faces. @cleezy A few months ago I had the honor of reading a chapter in my friend Rachel Held Evan's book of her last writing before her death. It was incredibly emotional to read her words, particularly the passages I was given, and I had to stop several times along the way to compose myself (if you listen to the audiobook, you will probably hear me fighting back tears.)

I am talking with Kirsten Powers, USA Today columnist and CNN senior political analyst, about just that. Her new book is Saving Grace: Speak Your Truth, Stay Centered, and Learn to Coexist with People Who Drive You Nuts.
