…comes at New Year's. I made the gravy Mom's way.
R. gave me a photograph, framed. Walt found it among the farm pictures: Mom at about thirty on the porch steps with a dishpan of peas in her lap, squinting at whoever held the camera. I had never seen it. I had to go and stand in the pantry for a minute.
I have been…

…designed and built himself the week before. She kept her name and walked in alone, having informed her father in March that she was not property to be handed over. R. walked her as far as the gate, by negotiation.

Kate is tired. She does not want advice and I have given almost none; I have done laundry, made soup, and walked the baby around the block in the drizzle so that she could sleep. On Friday she came downstairs, found the kitchen clean and the baby asleep on my chest, and cried, and said it was hormones, and I sa…
