Pendant
August 4, 2015I have stopped wearing jewelry—it is the only way to keep it out of the small, swift hands of my 11-month-old—but I made an exception the day we took him to see where everything began.
In the restaurant at the edge of the desert, he grabbed the pendant’s cord, gave it a twist, looked up at me with pool-blue eyes.
Be gentle, I said, prying his fingers away. I was wearing that when I met your father.

Tears. This is so wonderful.
Thanks, Dottie. <3
