Avery became the heart and soul of the project. She spoke at events, helped design wigs, and even wrote little notes to send with each one. “To make people smile,” she’d say.
At a foundation event years later, Avery hugged me tightly and whispered, “See, Mom?
I told you love makes everything better.”
And just like that, she reminded me again why she’s the greatest gift I’ve ever received.
Like this story? Here is another one:
I always dreamed of a wedding day filled with joy, love, and excitement, and as I walked down the aisle, I thought that dream was coming true.
The soft glow of candlelight illuminated the room, mingling with the scent of fresh roses. Jonathan stood at the altar, looking as handsome as the day we met.
It had been three years since we first crossed paths at a friend’s barbecue.
I wasn’t looking for love, but Jonathan’s warmth and easygoing nature pulled me in.
What began as casual conversations about work and books soon became long evenings filled with laughter. We clicked instantly, and within months, I couldn’t imagine my life without him.
One evening, not long after we started dating, Jonathan dropped a bombshell over dinner.
“Abigail, there’s something you need to know,” he confessed. “I have a daughter.
Her name’s Mia, and she’s four. I need you to think about whether you’re ready for that. Because if this doesn’t work for you, I’d rather know now.”
“A daughter?” I echoed.
“You have a daughter?”
