Thomas came up behind me.
“You know what’s strange?” he asked.
“What?”

“You haven’t talked about those dreams anymore.”
He was right.
Since Liam’s birth, I had not had a single one.
Not once.
I looked down at my son.
For months, I had believed Emily’s message meant that I needed to find this baby.
But suddenly, I understood it differently.
Maybe Liam was never the only thing I was meant to find.
Find Therapists
Maybe the road that led me to him was also meant to reveal the danger that had been quietly hiding inside me for years.
I reached into the crib and touched his tiny hand.
His fingers curled around mine.
And for the first time since losing Emily, thinking about her no longer brought only pain.
Because somehow, through the child I lost and the child I found, life gave me something I never thought I would have again.
