Slashed tires... a secret move... nearly dying while giving birth... When a small town teen finds herself pregnant in the 1960's, truly agonizing moments happen which cause effects for generations. Loving someone often means putting what is best for them ahead of what you think best for yourself in family and friendship. This is the sometimes heartbreaking, often heart warming and humorous true story of the Ripples set in motion. I grew up in a small town in Southern Oregon. I loved sports, music and adventure, all which have carried over in my life to the present. Becoming pregnant is high school was not in my plans, but God can take the worst situations and turn them to His glory. It is because of my daughter, who I met later in life, that I have written this book. Miracles happen and they need to be shared to give hope to those feeling hopeless.
