Go figure I would be the first one to comment, but this was a really enjoyable and touching episode. As I listened, it came to me the truly beautiful and expansive way families come together. I was present when my daughter gave birth to one of my grandsons. It was one of the greatest moments of my life and only eclipsed by the moment my own daughter was placed in my arms. My beautiful, intelligent, and super special daughter is adopted, you see. McKensey is my greatest gift in life. The moment McKensey met Martha and Jo, she knew they were destined to River's parents...and I know our family is so very blessed because Martha, Jo, River and Townes are a part of it. SS
