Chapter 69

Later That Night

After celebrations and dinner, I got the boys finally settled and back in their cribs. Tucking the blanket tight over them, I turn to see my mother waiting by the door.

“You know, when I married your father and allowed him to mark me, I didn’t think much of it. What I was losing-what I was gaining.” Michelle opens the door, coming out with a tray with mugs. She sets the tray down and hands me one. I find it is hot chocolate. She smiles and moves to sit on the top step with her own mug.
