The Almost Archer Sisters (2008)
“But the boys were five and eight now, so it had been years since I’d been up before daybreak, years since I’d breast-fed my sons while watching the sun come up over the Rosarios’ farm across the way.
But now the morning sky was becoming so bright it hurt my eyes to look up, partly because I was slightly hungover for the first time in months, partly because tears were pooling in the corners of my eyes, which was partly due to the smoke from my first cigarette in eight years. But mostly it was du...e to the crying. Still, you could tell that it was going to be a beautiful day. Made me less afraid to leave.
We had arrived at the park a couple of hours earlier, I’d say about four-thirty in the morning. I had thrown the car blanket over Jake, who fell easily back to sleep in the grass. Sam had stayed up with me for a while, slightly confused and beyond exhausted. Then he too dropped at my feet at the foot of the slide. I watched him get hit by his invisible lightning. You could tell the difference between sleep and a seizure by the way his feet would whip back and forth like tiny windshield wipers gone awry.MoreLess
