Sally was not alone on her thoughts. Part of the reason Amelia had never had a family, or so she figured, was because she was terrified of what happened to her own. Or perhaps it really was all bitterness. She hated the fact these wonderful people, her wonderful niece and nephew who had just begun to live, had no futures. Shying away from those thoughts the best she could though, she nodded at Sally. Though she wasn't sure if it would happen exactly like that, she knew it had to happen. Though the thought of holding it off for a bit crossed her mind, she had the feeling her sister-in-law wouldn't be thrilled with the idea.
"I know you're right.." she said, taking a deep breath and pulling away a bit. "But I think I need some time to pull myself together before I can do something like this."
