No LoveShe never was a confident one, even as a baby poor thing. I’d take her to the park, and all the other toddlers would run, and of course fall on their diapered little behinds, and my stars would they laugh. Some of them would cry—spoiled little things—but even the spoiled ones would get right back up and keep on running. She had her chubby little baby hands around the edge of that park bench so tight you’d think she was built in. Such a face! It gave my old heart terrible pain to watch her as a baby, looking after the other kids and staying put not two feet from me. &nbNo Love

C.C’s balance was off. It was the one thing she kept forgetting, getting out of bed in the morning, anticipating that graceful slide into a new day. A stumble, a lurch, sometimes a quick sit down on the floor or back on the bed, and she was ready to waddle forth and claim belly pats from strangers. On mornings when it seemed too much to be born, she would grit her teeth, elongate her neck, and scold herself about how fortunate she was to be so limber in times like these.C.
