What would you do if your young child asked you to find her birth father? Our guest today experienced that exact situation when her young daughter told her she wanted to see her birth father.

The relationship with her daughter's birth mom had already evolved from being nearly closed to completely open. But this was a big step.

Listen as Tonya shares her story of listening, trusting God, and putting her child's needs above her personal comfort.
