Steve & Mary
Mary nodded. "It is hard, especially for a boy to grow up without his father. Fortunately, Ichabod has been everything I could have asked for and more."
She glanced across the room where Ichabod was talking to her sister. He was always such a gentleman, always knew what to do. Not only did Mary love him, she had a great deal of respect for him as well.
Mary turned back to Steve. "Have you been well? How is your daughter?"
