Like his other book, this one is frank and funny. Dan and his boyfriend adopt a baby from a young woman who is "homeless by choice" in Portland, Oregon. How these three people come together to make a family for D.J. is enlightening and inspiring.

I'm almost done with this book. The handing off of the baby in the hospital room was very sad. The young woman sobbed as she gave her baby to the two men who will raise him. But in this open adoption, she will see him and be known to him throughout his life. Quite different from my father's adoption sixty-some years ago when his birth mother let him go, never to see him again. What a hard and brave thing to do. Either way.
