Bound By A Borrowed Heart
A rocking chair sits in the corner beside a reading lamp, positioned for 3 AM feedings.
And above the crib, is a custom mobile. Hand-carved lavender sprigs made with wood, not plastic, each one different, turning slowly in the air current from the vent.
They catch the light and cast tiny shadows on the crib mattress like flowers falling.
I stand in the doorway holding my daughter and I can't say anything at the moment because I’m still in such shock. Sean went out of his way to do all these for Peculiar.
"It's too much, isn't it?" Sean says behind me. His voice has the carefully casual tone of a man who spent a fortune and is trying not to seem like he cares whether you like it.
