Carry Her Heart
“Ned commanded as he stood next to my dad at the bottom of my staircase.
I needed the reminder. I’d been bubbling over with excitement all day.
March was one of those in-between months. Not quite winter, not quite spring.
In between. That’s how I’d felt all day. Not quite excited, not quite nervous. I swung between the two emotions like a pendulum, neither one thing nor the other for long. Ned was right; breathing seemed to be something optional.
I took a second and forced myself... to inhale. I exhaled as I stepped off the last step.
Coop and my mom followed me down the stairs.
I told myself to capture this moment so that I could savor it once it passed. I was surrounded by the people I loved and about to go to an event that celebrated a project I was passionate about. It was a moment that deserved to be preserved.
My mother moved next to my father, as if they were drawn to one another by some invisible force.MoreLess
