Every adoption story has its ups and downs, and Brett and Melissa Millican's story is no different. In this Dad to Dad episode, I ask Brett to tell the story of how he went to Ethiopia uninvited almost two years ago to bring home his daughter.

Then we spend the second half of the episode talking about what it has been like for Brett to be an adoptive dad.

Whether you are in the process of international adoption or you are and adoptive dad, you will want to listen in to our conversation.
