Belonging
“Walter Swanson, hat in hand, delivered the news to her on Sunday evening, half an hour after Colin took Charity home.Felicia spent a sleepless, tearful night asking God why this was happening, what His plan was now, how she was to proceed. But if He answered, she couldn’t hear, perhaps because of the waves of fear that crashed over her again and again throughout the torturous hours before dawn.Early on Monday morning, she rose, washed herself, dressed, and walked to the schoolhouse well before ...any of the children would arrive.
