For the first time, the remarkable couple depicted in The Blind Side tells their own inspiring story. First came the bestselling book, then the Oscar-nominated movie, but until now, Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy have never told their tale in their own words. For Leigh Anne and Sean, it all begins with family. Leigh Anne, the daughter of a tough U.S. Marshal, decided early on that her mission was to raise children who would become "cheerful givers." Sean, who grew up poor, believed that one day he could provide a home that would be "a place of miracles." Together, they raised two children who shared their deep Christian faith and their commitment to making a difference. Then one day Leigh Anne met a homeless African-American boy named Michael Oher and decided that her family could be his.--From publisher description.
