TCKs in Love: Lauren Abernethy and Ben Gault

Below is a link to the story of my third daughter, Lauren, and her her fiance's falling in love. TCK means Third Culture Kids. It is the more modern and more accurate terminology for kids that are born in one country but go with their parents to another country to live. (Here we are talking about missionary kids) If that kid stays in the second "home" country for long, the emerging of a "third" culture is evident in his or her life.

Thus the term: Third Culture Kid. They bring back to their birth country a unique and often mystifying combination of two cultures and a very unique way of looking at life.
