Xavier is asleep next to me and the soft sound of his breathing brings great joy to my battered and bruised heart. It had been way too long since I saw him last and I believe I now know what it is I should be doing.
I have felt so out of balance and as though I have just been floating along the perimeter without any sense of who I am or what I've been put on this earth to do. I believe, now, that I need to step up to the plate and be the best grandma I can be to Xavier, up to and including moving closer to him and Monica.
For right now though, I will enjoy spending time with this little boy.
