the angels."
"Then, when can I see her?" James asked. Amber thought about it for a moment.
"How about this? If you wait long enough you'll not only be able to meet her, but you'll also be able to be with her," Amber suggested.
James gave it a thought and nodded. "Okay," he said. He looked up on the ceiling and called,
"Mommy, I'll be waiting for you!"
Amber chuckled lightly. "Come on, now," she said and pulled the covers over the little boy. "It's time for bed. Your mommy will be watching over you as you sleep."
James snuggled into his blankets and hugged the picture close to his chest. His eyes grew droopy and soon he was fast asleep. Amber brushed a lock of hair from his face. He really did look like an angel.
She looked around the pallid room, at colorless ceiling, walls, and furniture. "Perhaps it's time I clean this room," she said to someone invisible. "Tomorrow I'll dust off the drawers and paint the walls a light blue. I'll change the bed and the sheets and buy a bunch of toys for James. I think I'll add a dark blue curtain, too. James and I will have a fresh new start tomorrow."
There was a light wind that blew through the room and Amber smiled because she knew that
Emily had been listening. "Thank you," she whispered to no one in particular. "Thank you."
Then she turned off the lights and fell into a
deep slumber besides her grandson.
