Throughout this process i have had old friends turn their back on me because i chose to bring a mixed child into my house. I have seen people treat me as a second class citizen because the child in my grocery cart is mixed.
Hats off to you my brother.

I've had the honor of meeting Ace's son. He is an awesome little man and is damn lucky to have such a great dad.
