She looked at John, and he held her baby up like a prize won at a county fair.

“She’s gorgeous,” he said. “Just like her mother.”

“A girl,” Annie crooned. She’d given birth, and now she’d never be alone again. She had a family. A daughter.

It all felt so wonderful. So…right. Yesterday she hadn’t even known this man existed. And now…oh, she couldn’t imagine not knowing him.

“You’re amazing,” he said, and she saw admiration and wonder in his eyes. “She’s amazing.”

Annie reached up and caught his hand with hers and said quietly, “Thank you.” She wanted to tell him so much. To let him know what it had meant to her that he was there. “Thank you.”

He shook his head, bent down, kissed her forehead, then kissed the baby. Smiling at Annie, he said, “Annie, I wouldn’t have missed this for anything. Thank you for letting me witness a miracle.”
