"She Will be Loved"

Kirsten closed the door to her house, and placed her keys on the table.

"Honey I'm home"

Sandy poked his head out through the kitchen door and made his way towards his wife.

Kirsten loved how he always answered her calls, how he always greeted her affectionately and most of all how he always encouraged her to be a better person.

"Hey beautiful" Sandy kissed his wife lightly on the lips.

Kirsten wrapped her arms around his neck and slightly pulled away whispering "thank you" before finding his lips again. Sandy responded to her kiss and lifted her up and twirled her around. Kirsten squealed in delight.

"What are you thankful for?"

"For your idea about visiting the children's hospital. Sandy it was amazing, the place there is amazing, and the kids, Sandy the kids they are just so inspiring, I mean their strength, courage and outlook on life, even though they all have terminal illness, I don't know its inspiring"

Sandy smiled at his wife

"Honey, look at you I have never seen you so enthusiastic before, your mother is coming out in you". He placed his hand over her heart and kissed her lightly on the lips.

"So who did you meet there?"

Kirsten pulled away from Sandy's embrace and grabbed her briefcase. "Come into the living room and I'll tell you all about it"

Kirsten reached for his hand and pulled Sandy towards the couch. She snuggled into her husband's chest and sighed gratefully as he began massaging her head.

"Well I first met this women Hannah, and It turns out she was a good friend of my mothers and I remember her, well I don't really remember her, I just remember she baked awesome cookies"

"Then she took me to what I presume is a playroom, and it's so nicely decorated with clouds, cartoon characters, rainbows everything. It's just a real bright happy place. There were so many awesome kids Sandy. Some in wheelchairs, others suffering from Down syndrome, autism, and epilepsy you name it. They were so happy honey. Singing, dancing, laughing along with the stories been told"

Sandy kissed his wives forehead as she continued to talk.

"I met this little girl. I just admire her courage. I asked her name and she replied her full name! She was so cute, she said she liked her first name because it means "beautiful fairy" and that's what she wants to be when she goes to heaven, she said I had hair like a princess and then we drew a picture"

Kirsten smiled at the memories and reached for her briefcase where she pulled out the white piece of paper. "Look this is what we drew, its "Castle on a Cloud" and she drew me, and I drew her. Isn't it so cute? I promised her I would put it on the refrigerator"

"Kirsten" Sandy softly said.

"Yeah"

"Honey listen to yourself, I wish you could hear the excitement in your voice. I have never ever seen you so passionate about anything or anyone before" He kissed her temple and she relaxed back into his chest.

"Sandy, I heard Ella's background story, and she reminds me so much of Ryan. Obviously Ryan is not sick and hopefully he never will be, but Ella, she has been shipped from foster care to foster care before ending up in the hospital. She has never had a family; she never got to call anyone mom or dad, or experience the world the way a five year old should.

It put my love for Ryan into perspective. I see him as my own son, we are able to provide for him the family he never had. I'm not saying I want to adopt Ella or anything, but I just want to be given the chance to love her. She is amazing Sandy and she deserves to be loved. Is that stupid for me to say after just meeting the little girl?"

Sandy wrapped his arms tightly around her stomach and Kirsten held his hand. She began to play with his wedding ring and could feel Sandy smiling above her.

"Honey it's not stupid. You're such a loving person, with so much love to give. I mean look at Ryan, a lot of people would have thrown him out into the streets, if we didn't take him in god only knows where he would be now. Of course it's possible to love someone after just meeting them. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you and look where we are today"

Kirsten turned around in her husbands arms and kissed him passionately.

"I love you"

"I love you too" he replied.

Kirsten kissed him again before Sandy pulled away slightly to whisper in her ear
"Go befriend Ella. She will be one lucky little girl to have you in her life"

Kirsten smiled and looked into her husbands thoughtful eyes; she closed her eyes before losing herself in her husband's touch.
