Blue Lines (Five for Fighting #2)
Page 20
Another fact Annie couldn’t argue with. The fact that they were going to have two small children at home was going to put a hold on things for a while. At least she thought they would. Chances were they weren’t going to get any sleep for months.
Isabel had already started out different than her brother, so there was a little hope sleeping through the night would find its way to her schedule sooner rather than later. It would help if Nelson was good about sharing the night duty, but he could sleep through a tornado. As cute as he was all day helping out, Annie didn’t usually throw a fit about being the only one up at night.
“I love you, Nelson Palmer, and I hope you never forget that.” Annie was starting to slip into unconsciousness, but she wanted to say the words.
“I love you too, Annie Palmer. You rest for a little bit, and when you wake up, I’ll make sure there’s a steak dinner waiting for you. If you’re really good, I’ll throw in an order of onion rings and those garlic steak fries you like.”
The promise of a hearty meal almost brought Annie out of her sleep. She wanted to tell him how perfect he’d made her life, but she’d already mentioned it a million times. There were times people would ask her how she consistently kept a smile on her face, and her answer was always the same. Annie would tell them something it had taken years to learn - never let your dreams die and don’t be afraid to fight for what you love. If you do that, reasons to smile are easy to find.
