Chapter 14 - THE CHRISTMAS THAT HEALED THEM
The following Christmas, the twins helped decorate our new home.
It wasn't enormous.
It didn't have marble floors.
Or a grand staircase.
But it had a fireplace.
A kitchen big enough for baking.
And bedrooms where the children felt safe.
Emily hung a handmade ornament.
Lucas placed a wooden star on the tree.

Not as a favor that required repayment.
But because he believed my work deserved a chance.
My sewing business was growing.
Slowly.
