I was kneeling before I even realized it. Inside the blanket was a newborn boy, maybe three weeks old, lips tinged blue, breathing shallow and…

I always imagined that when Harold died, I’d feel some kind of resolution. But instead, it felt like something long hidden suddenly cracked open. Rain began to fall just as they lowered my father-in-law’s casket into the ground. Mud gathered around our shoes, my discount umbrella shuddered in the wind, and I kept one hand on my son’s shoulder so I wouldn’t lose my footing. I can’t pretend I was mourning Harold. He and I…

His eyes were too watchful for someone so young — the kind of eyes that already knew what disappointment felt like. His mother, Lauren, had just been abandoned. Not widowed — abandoned. Rick walked out the moment her health started to decline. He…
