Last night wasn't the time for me to say this, so I'll do it now. I feel the need to apologize. I was completely blindsided by everything that happened at the pumpkin patch. I discovered much about myself that I was perhaps not ready to face since that day, about the nature of love and why I chose the path I did when I came to the end of my time at Redmond. I can't say I would choose differently were I to go back now, because it would never have been a choice truly given to me. But I do know this: I love you, and I love you more deeply and fully than I could have ever imagined it was possible to love someone other than my own child. You are the gift that was waiting for me here, and I'm sorry that I wasted so much time in understanding this gift. I settled for Gilbert, but I am absolutely not settling for you. I am reaching out with both hands to grasp at this time we have together, and I promise not to squander it. Long after I have turned to dust or returned to words on a page, you will remain with me, a part of me.
Would you like to be my partner in the baking club?
