Never underestimate the power of your mother

[coleengoodell]

Never underestimate a mother's instinct or her spiritual connection with her children. We just know. Thank God first for this miracle and for a family's love and determination.

Can’t believe they left him out there. I feel bad for his mom too, she’s gonna have nightmares about that forever. It gives me chills knowing she found him the way she did. Thank God for her intuition and their bond.

The boat going full throttle gives me chills. What an amazing story and wonderful family. One thing he will never doubt is how much his family loves him.
