Solomon's Decision
“"The kids went up to the old line shack this morning," Jon said. "It looks like they decided to stay all night." He sounded as if the children did something like this every week.
"Oh, Jon, did they go alone?" "Well, yes, but I wouldn't worry if I was you. Jace may still be a kid, but he's a sensible, responsible kid. And you know Denny--he's real protective of the littles." Madeline couldn't believe Jon was being so calm about the situation. "What if...?" Jon said, "I figure it'll do 'em go...od to stay up there. Maybe they'll get cold and hungry enough that they won't pull a fool stunt like this again." Her belly clenched. "But-- but--" "Hey, Linnie, it's okay. They'll be safe up there, and in the morning, when I go up and get 'em, they'll wish they'd spent the night in their own little beds." She was partially soothed by the amusement in his voice. "So you're going to teach them about suffering the consequences of their actions the hard way?" She didn't approve of her babies having quite this strong a lesson, but if Jon wasn't worried, she'd try not to be.MoreLess
