Lailah wasn't certain what a housewarming party was, but listening to people talk about it filled her in swiftly enough. She thought it was a delightful idea, and wanted to wish the happy couple and soon to be parents well.
She showed up wearing one of the simple sundresses that had been made for her and an excited smile on her face. Every little bit of the cabin was looked upon with open curiosity, which included her getting down on her knees to peer into corners. Father, I know you don't hear me anymore, but if you do now, please bring love and peace to this place.
