He wrote about how we met, about our college days, and the struggles and happiness when we were first married. He wrote about the overwhelming joy the first time he saw the ultrasound and about the moment he first wavered. He laid bare every thought—every selfishness, every vanity, every foolish mistake. He wrote about how he indulged Summer and how blindly he obeyed his mother. He talked about every bit of pain I had endured. Not once did he try to justify himself.
