Happy Sunday, all! This is a huge week for my family. My little girl turns eleven on Tuesday, and Friday is a trip to the GA Aquarium. Woo hoo! Love that place. Next Sunday is also a big day for us, but I’ll talk more about that next week. 😉

Across the room, the mattress squeaked as the mark shifted his weight. His bare chest presented itself to the ceiling as his tangled limbs twitched in peaceful sleep I would soon end.

The stink of cigarettes permeated the room and would linger on my clothing long after my work here was done. I probably burned more clothes in my fireplace than I kept in my closet. For that reason, I dressed casual for work most nights in worn jeans, scuffed sneakers, and a t-shirt.

As it was, her car idled at the curb before a tidy ranch-style house where an elderly gentleman tended his garden. She tapped her horn, and he glanced her way. Squinting into the sun, his weathered face crinkled in a grin that warmed her from the inside out. He tossed his gloves to the ground, and then waved her forward. And when her tires hit the concrete driveway, they rolled over the imprint of her five-year-old self’s hands.
