Nettie smiled as she looked around her Sunday luncheon table after every one's head had raised from being bowed during the blessing over the food. She was blessed to have her niece and these seven wonderful men in her world and as her family. Though they did not share the same blood, they completed her and were more of a family to her than any one save Casey had ever been. "Thank you for coming, gentleman."

Vin's eyes met hers. Though he had shed his hat at the door, he still tipped his head. "Thank you for havin' us, Miz Nettie."
