Subway Discovery Sparks a Family of Three

In August 2000, Danny Stewart’s evening walk home turned extraordinary when he spotted a tiny newborn left swaddled on a subway platform. Police arrived within moments, and Danny’s heart raced as he scooped up the baby, calling his boyfriend Pete in a panic that would echo through their lives. Media attention faded soon enough, but a judge’s question months later—“Would you like to adopt?”—changed everything. Danny said yes without hesitation, and though Pete’s first reaction was fear, he soon felt a warmth at the thought of becoming a father.

Now, twenty-five years later and celebrating Pride Month and Father’s Day, Danny and Pete look back by writing letters to their younger selves. They reflect on the fear that gave way to joy, the tiny hands that became part of their hearts, and the family they never saw coming. Their story reminds us that love defines every family, no matter how it begins. For those inspired to support foster and adoptive parents, groups like Second Nurture offer community and care—because every child deserves a chance to thrive in a home filled with love.
