From Lizzie’s heart, through mine, to yours.

“Are you sure?” he asks.
“Yes, I’m sure. That’s who I choose to be my mommy.” I said gleefully.
“If that is what you wish my child, it will be done.”

Another stands next to me.
“You remember you will be coming home soon?” he questions.
“Yes Papa, I remember.” I smiled.

Being born was hard, there were so many new senses.
But amongst those scary things were voices I recognized.
My mommy’s face, my daddy’s laugh. I knew I was safe.
****
Smiles and laughs.
Cuddles and naps.
This is what he meant when he said it would be worth it.

“Time to come home Lizzie” he calls to me.
“Do you think they will be ok Papa?” I worry.
“Yes baby, because we are going to be right here with them.” He replies.
“Forever Papa?” I ask.
“Yes Lizzie, forever.”
