CHAPTER 7
FOUR MONTHS LATER
Jeremy is sitting in his and Candy's bedroom rocking his one day old daughter while Candy is still asleep. "Shh, Sarah. We don't want to wake Mama up quite yet. She's tired and needs her rest." He looks lovingly at his red headed, blue eyed baby girl. "You are the spitting image of your Mama. I hope you didn't inherit her temper, too," he chuckles. "You know, we named you Sarah after your Grandma Bolt and Jane after your Mama and your Grandma Pruitt. I think both of your Grandmas would have been so proud of you. You're beautiful and I'm just wondering how I'm ever going to keep all those young men away from you. It's going to be a challenge. But don't you worry, I'll protect you."
He closes his eyes and when he opens them again, he looks up at the ceiling and whispers. "Thank you Mama. Thank you for giving me this second chance on life, for making all this possible. I wouldn't have wanted to miss this for the world. This little girl has stolen my heart, just like her Mama did. Isn't she the most beautiful baby you've ever seen? I'll always treasure her and Candy. They are my life." He kisses baby Sarah on her forehead. "I love you, Sarah Jane, now and forever."
