Special Delivery (A Valentine's Short Story)
“After she finished her letters, she wanted to concentrate on her Valentine’s Day message to the baby. Luke had sent his to her by e-mail, and she was to inscribe both notes in the brand-new baby book Katie had given them. There was a section for First Holidays, and even though the baby wasn’t quite here yet, Amanda and Luke had decided that this February fourteenth counted.
If Little Bean had cooperated and been born on his or her due date, he or she would be here already. That was Luke’s argum...ent, anyway.
Amanda’s motivation was different. Though she’d been speaking to her child all along, she could hardly wait to get to do so in person. Writing the baby a very personal note seemed the next best thing. It was like a conversation she could record for their child to play back later at any time he or she wished. Luke had sent his contribution by e-mail attachment and asked her not to read it until after she’d written hers. No cheating! he’d warned, including the emoticon for a wink.MoreLess
