Re: Shannon, Kat & Thor
"I don't actually know. There were weeks at a time that he would stay with us. Especially once you began to speak. And he would bring supplies when I seemed frazzled. And when you had colic he watched you for a little while so I could rest. But while I was carrying you he stayed away for a whole month, I don't know if it was to prove he didn't 'need me', as if I would suggest something like that, or if he had to separate himself. Or simply because he didn't realize he was gone that long. But when he returned I was showing with you, and I saw him nearly every day after that." Shannon took a sip of the wine she carried. "But it worked for us. And we both loved you more than life itself. Love you, more than life itself." That was the one thing she was sure of. She hadn't meant to get feelsy, and she took a deeper drink of her wine.
