I enjoyed the different stories. Would love an update on Avery’s family and Mary Courtland. Avery would probably be my age and I wonder if he faced any bullying due to his family being non traditional.

I was more interested in the stories as I found the pictures to not capture any real emotion. All the photos felt staged.
