Stephanie, Ranger, and Julie belong to Janet. Olivia and the story are mine.
Some people need someone to live for, and I now have three of them. Stephanie, Julie, and the newest edition to our family ... six-pound, eleven-ounce Olivia.
"She looks just like a little Olive, doesn't she?" Steph asked, not lifting her eyes from our first and likely only child together.
"She's perfect."
"This is really happening?"
"Yes. We made a baby and they're even letting us take her home."
"Home. It has become one, hasn't it?"
"Since you and Rex moved in a year ago."
"When do we get to go back?"
"When the doctor clears you both."
"What's he waiting for then?"
"You to let her go?"
