I had the chance on Sunday to photograph an extraordinary story.

David Amaya was abducted by his father to Mexico when he was about two years old. Thirty-four years later, Amaya crossed the border back to the U.S. on a whim and was picked up by Border Patrol.

Once they ascertained that he was in fact a U.S. citizen, moves were made to reunite him with his mother.

I got the chance to meet David and his mother Kathy Amaya before a church service on Sunday. They have a lot of challenges going forward. Kathy, a Wisconsin resident, doesn't speak a lick of Spanish. And David can't speak English. But some facial features and mannerisms indicate that they are clearly mother and son, as reporter Marty Graham pointed out in her story.

It was awesome to get to meet these two and play a small part in telling a story we can feel good about.
