David Reed, 3, was taken away from his mother shortly

after birth due to neglect, so his grandfather, Dennis

Reed and his wife Rai Reed took him in at 5 months. On

May 30th, a week after David's third birthday, the

adoption was made official. "I thought I was done

raising kids," says Rui Reed, "but it's kind of fun

being a mother again.... I wouldn't change a thing."
