Decisions I made Returning Monica to Her Mother
Sunday afternoon arrived far sooner than any of them wanted.The weekend had disappeared in a blur of pancakes, dinosaur books, the zoo, ice cream, bedtime stories, and endless giggles.Lela stood in Jack's kitchen loading the last few breakfast dishes into the dishwasher while Monica sat at the table coloring."I making one more picture."Lela smiled over her shoulder."I can't wait to see it."Jack walked in carrying an overnight bag filled with Monica's pajamas, favorite blanket, stuffed puppy, and coloring books."I think we have everything."Monica looked up."No."Jack frowned."No?""I need dis."She held up the drawing she had been working on.Jack walked over.It was another picture of the three of them.Only this time there was a huge yellow sun in the corner and what looked like an ice cream cone almost as big as Monica herself.Jack smiled."Tell me about it."Monica pointed."Dat me."Then another."Dat Daddy."Then Lela."Dat pretty Lela."She pointed toward the giant ic
Decisions I made Overnight
The rest of the morning unfolded more naturally than either Jack or Lela could have imagined.After reading three books, coloring two dinosaurs purple, and building a tower out of wooden blocks that Monica proudly knocked over with a dramatic "BOOM!", the three of them made pancakes together.Well...Jack made the pancakes.Lela mixed the batter.Monica somehow managed to get flour on everyone.Jack laughed as he looked down at his black T-shirt."How did I end up covered in flour?"Monica giggled."I help!""You certainly did."Lela looked at the little dinosaur plate she had bought sitting on the table."Jack..."He looked over."You used it."He smiled."She wanted to."Lela looked at Monica."You did?"The little girl nodded while taking a bite of pancake."It my dino plate."Lela's heart melted."You like it?""It RAWR."She held it up proudly."Daddy, look!"Jack smiled at Lela."I think that's a yes."After breakfast, they packed up and headed to the zoo.The moment they walked
Decisions I made Today is the Day
Saturday morning arrived much earlier than either Jack or Lela expected.Lela had been awake since six o'clock.She changed outfits three times before finally settling on a light blue sundress with white sneakers.She looked at herself in the mirror and laughed."I'm meeting a two-year-old," she whispered."Not interviewing for a job."Downstairs, Pamela smiled as Lela walked into the kitchen."You look beautiful.""You think so?""I do."Lela sighed."I'm nervous."Pamela poured her a cup of coffee."Good.""Why is that good?""Because it means this matters to you."Frank walked into the kitchen."Ready?""I think so."He hugged her."Just remember...""She doesn't need perfection.""She just needs someone willing to play."Lela smiled."I can do that."Across town, Jack stood outside a small daycare classroom.The moment the teacher opened the door, a tiny blur with dark curls came running toward him."DADDYYYY!"Jack dropped to one knee just as Monica launched herself into his arms
Decisions I made What To Buy
Friday afternoon couldn't seem to end fast enough for Lela.She glanced at the clock in her bedroom for what felt like the hundredth time before finally deciding she couldn't sit still another minute.She grabbed her purse and headed downstairs.Pamela looked up from the living room."Where are you off to?"Lela smiled."I need to run a couple of errands.""Do you need any company?"Lela thought for a moment before smiling."Actually...""I'd love your help."Pamela grabbed her purse without another question.A few minutes later, they were walking through the children's section of a department store.Pamela looked around curiously."So..."She smiled knowingly."This wasn't exactly the errand I expected."Lela picked up a small stuffed elephant."I've never shopped for a two-year-old before."Pamela laughed softly."I can tell.""Why?""Because you've already picked up six stuffed animals."Lela looked down at the cart.There was a bunny.A teddy bear.A dinosaur.A unicorn.A puppy.
Decisions I made Meeting
The next two weeks seemed to pass in the blink of an eye.For Lela, every day brought another milestone.Emily had finally cleared her to walk without her crutch around the house, though she still carried it on longer outings."Just don't get overconfident," Emily reminded her after another therapy session.Lela laughed."I've learned that lesson already."Jack was waiting in the lobby when she finished.As always.He stood the moment he saw her."How'd you do?"Emily answered before Lela could."She's doing great."Jack's face lit up."I knew you could do it."Lela rolled her eyes playfully."You two celebrate every little thing.""Because every little thing matters," Jack replied.He slipped his hand into hers as they walked toward the parking lot."So..."She smiled."So?""This weekend."Lela's stomach fluttered."This weekend."Jack nodded."Monica comes Friday afternoon.""You'll pick her up?""At three."He smiled to himself."I haven't seen her in almost two weeks."Lela watch
Decisions I made Lela's Own Choice
The house grew quiet after the conversation.Pamela carried the bowl of strawberries to the refrigerator without another word.Frank picked up his newspaper, though he hadn't read a single line since walking into the kitchen.Lela stood at the window, looking out over the backyard.She hated that her mother was upset.But she also knew she couldn't live her life trying to make everyone else comfortable.Frank folded the newspaper and looked toward his wife."Pam."She didn't answer."Come sit down."She sighed before joining him at the kitchen table.Lela started to leave."I'll let you two talk."Frank shook his head."No.""You stay.""This concerns all three of us."Lela slowly sat back down.Frank reached for Pamela's hand."I know why you're upset.""I'm upset because she deserves better."Frank nodded."So do I."Pamela looked at him."But I also know the man I've watched these past several months.""He isn't Chris."The name hung in the room.Lela lowered her eyes.Pamela close
Decisions I made Dinner Option
By 6:00, I was officially ready.Well, mostly ready.My outfit had changed twice.My hair had been redone once.And Mom had already checked on me three separate times.By the fourth visit, I pointed toward the hallway."Out."She laughed."I'm just looking.""You're supervising.""I prefer supporti
Decisions I made Dinner with my parents
"Okay," Dad said as he leaned back in his chair. "Let's talk about this Jack guy."I groaned."Do we have to?""Absolutely."Mom laughed."We definitely have to."I shook my head."There's really not much to tell."Dad pointed at me."Start with what you know."I thought about it for a moment."Wel
Decisions I made Thursday Night
Thursday nights were usually predictable. Chris would have another dinner meeting with clients, another networking event, or another reason he couldn't be home. Over the years, I had stopped asking questions. Sometimes the meetings were legitimate, sometimes they weren't, and sometimes I simply did
Decisions I made The Start
Ten years ago, my husband and I started having problems in our marriage. At first, they were the kind of problems that many couples face—arguments about money, stress from everyday life, and disagreements about priorities. We kept telling ourselves that things would get better, that we were just go
