Nine Year Pregnancy by Delana H. Stewart - SPOILERS Allowed

[merond]

For anyone interested in adoption, my mom is releasing a book next year called Nine Year Pregnancy about our family's adoption story.

The howling winds drowned out the radio, as our car inched on down the winding road. Suddenly, something appeared in the road ahead of us. The car screeched to a halt when my husband slammed on the brakes. I noticed in the glow of the headlights a little girl drenched by the downpour.
