“That is my greatest aspiration — to be a mother,” she told People magazine. “I guess we’ll start having kids and see how I handle that and then go from there. I don’t have a predetermined number in my head.”

Elizabeth, who is also a contributor for ABC News, hopes to continue to be an inspiration to people who have undergone similar traumatic experiences.

“The power of the media is so strong. I know that in my own experience, if my parents hadn’t kept my story alive in the press, it might have been just another sad story that came and went,” she added. “So the opportunity to talk to other victims and survivors means a lot to me and to them. Nobody should have to go through the aftermath of a terrible crime alone.”

We can’t wait to meet him!
