As a Digital Editor of Love What Matters, I'm here to pull on your heartstrings and make you smile. After spending nearly six years as a Digital Reporter for ABC News' "Good Morning America," I'm thrilled to continue sharing touching and inspiring stories that the world is so craving. We can all use more love in our lives -- now you've found the perfect place to get it.
“My children’s father was set on a path that would lead him to a heroin addiction. The young man I had married, the one that had loved his babies and was so excited to be a dad, was gone.”
“She didn’t have any symptoms. She didn’t have any signs screaming there was an issue. I thought we knew about these defects. I thought we were safe with all my children checked off with perfect health.”
“We got orders to evacuate the premises. We were pronounced husband and wife, told, ‘you may kiss the bride,’ we kissed, and then we RAN.”
“It’s a comment that stuck out like a sore thumb. I stopped in my tracks, as if I had been kicked in the gut.”
“I went to give her a kiss and she said, ‘Did you know my mother died today? She died and no one cares. It was so sudden and unexpected.'”
“My little man started to ‘run’ from it all. One moment saying, ‘I won’t miss you’ and the next falling into a pile of tears on my lap, whispering, ‘I don’t want to stop seeing you.'”
“My brain was telling me: ‘Look at the facts. She hides her phone at night, pays for everything in cash, and spends the night out multiple times a week.’ On the other hand, my heart was telling me: ‘She would never cheat. We are beyond close and each other’s best friend. I’m sure this is just a big misunderstanding.'”
“We should have each other’s back. We are the only ones who really know what you’re going through as a woman, a wife, a mother, a widow, a working mom, a stay-at-home mom.”
“He woke up, confused and unsure of where he was. I gave him a moment, then scooped down to pick him up. He jumped; I had scared him. He had learned that no one comes when he cries.”
“I landed on the Facebook page of a man with big, blue, almond-shaped eyes eerily like my own. Could it be him?! Oh my God! My mind was racing a million miles a minute when my husband came home from work. He saw me on the couch, unshowered, shaking, with the world’s biggest smile plastered on my face. I couldn’t hold it in. ‘Babe! I think I found him!’ He didn’t even know I existed. I kept pinching myself to make sure this was real.”
