As we have traveled this path with our child since the Fall of 2014, some of those questions have been answered--they've had to be, because there were new questions waiting.I will be sharing my experience of this transition as the mother who gave birth to this beautiful, brave, and wondrous child. My hope is that by sharing my experience, the door will be opened to many other mothers to accept and not fear accompanying their child on this journey with love, grace, and respect. As mothers we are purveyors of grace for our children. We are conduits of God's grace and mercy. Through our unconditional love we can move with our children as they find and reveal themselves, all the while easing their fears.I share my experiences with this transition because I know there are others out there who might be needing some hope, some understanding, and some way of finding their faith in the midst of such a transition.
Against a backdrop of high prairie winds and soaring, snow-capped peaks, an uneasy friendship makes its final appeal when the words 'Aunt Heidi' and a phone number are found written on the arm of a five-year-old Arapaho child. When Heidi Vogel arrives in New York to open a restaurant, the ambitious young German-born chef could never imagine that six years later, she would be managing a soup kitchen in Wyoming and sharing her home with an abandoned dog and a secretive young woman named Nara Crow. The birth of Nara's identical twins soothes the ache Heidi has felt since the death of her own baby, but sends Nara back into a depression that has haunted her for years. When Nara disappears with the children and Heidi's exhaustive search reveals no leads, Heidi is forced to consider a painful truth-Nara may not want to be found-and the life she thought they were building together was nothing but a charade. Just as Heidi decides it is time to move on, an unexpected phone call thrusts her into the ignorant world that confronts a transgender child.

"Make me shout . . ." Daphne Sol writes, in her new collection, A Myth in Reverse, "Make me cry out . . ." These are poems of myth and memory, poems that celebrate a life lived through the senses of allegory and legend, and of what might have been. Sol rejoices in beauty whenever it appears in the fleeting world, "a moment, sweet and stretched, like the neck of a swan." -Peter E. Murphy, author of I Thought I Was Going To Be Okay www.stockton.edu/murphywriting Daphne Sol is one of those spiritual writers that the world particularly needs right now, and she expresses her lifetime of wisdom in magnificent poems that prize melodic detail. You can't stop reading her poems because you want to know more of her fascinating life, and you want to learn how to transform beauty into not-specifically-articulated calls for justice and well-being. She captures the best of the universal in the particular, without ever leaving you out as a particular reader -Barbara Regenspan, author of The Chessmaster's Daughter and Haunting and the Educational Imagination To read Daphne Sol 's poetry is to step outside of oneself and into a swirling world of nature, music, and dance, and above all, passion. Hers is a world vibrant with color and textures sprung from a panoply of experience. Be it living in Latin America, New York City, or in country near Ithaca, the poet, herself a force of nature, is always self-aware, humorous, and unabashedly frank. To the wind flying across her pond, she reminds us: "You have to take me as I am/ wayward/ rebellious/the last free spirit." -Carolyn Clark, author of Watershed-new Finger Lakes poems

The students in Ms. Russell's classes have never read an entire book, and they can't relate to Harry Potter and his magic wand. Abel is twenty-eight days behind everyone else, and she needs to get enough books inside him to get his lungs to work again, mend his shattered heart, and kick the shit out of apathy. "I look forward to the day I see yellow caution tape stretched around my students' neighborhoods, the chalk outline of apathy on the ground, crushed by the weight of a thousand books. No educator, no real educator, likes the kid who escapes his consequences, and the eighth-grade team is going to make sure Abel pays for his apathy unless he can turn it around, change his grades, change his attitude, and change his relationships with his teachers. But I don't have 180 days anymore. He's only given me 152."
