“You know anything about kids?”
Daniel questioned eagerly. ‘Todd’s been crying for the last hour and I haven’t got a clue why.”
Rachel looked at Daniel. Goodness, his eyes were blue. “I had one that I managed to get through this stage without inadvertently killing him,” she admitted.
“You’re a godsend. Here, hold him for a minute,” he said, handing the baby to Rachel.
Rachel looked down in surprise. Her arm had tingled where Daniel had touched it. That kind of electrical-impulse-upon-contact sort of thing hadn’t happened to her since high school.
Suddenly the child stopped wailing and was staring fascinated at Rachel’s silken tresses.
“Thank you,” Daniel breathed. “You get me a couple of hours of peace and quiet and I’ll be your slave forever.”
Rachel laughed at that “Yeah, right.” But it was an interesting idea. A body like that, her slave?
My, oh, my.

TERRY ESSIG
says that her writing is her escape valve from a life that leaves little time for recreation or hobbies. With a husband and six children, Terry works on her stories a little at a time, between seeing to her children’s piano, cello and oboe lessons, their baseball and swim team practices, and her own activities of leading a Girl Scout troop and participating in a car pool. Her ideas, she says, come from her imagination and her life—neither one of which is lacking!
Dear Todd,
When you first came to live with me, I didn’t have a clue about fatherhood. And you weren’t much help either, being an eighteen-month-old with a limited vocabulary. Thank God for Rachel, huh? We were a couple of sorry cases until she came along.
I’ll always be grateful that when I crashed the wagon I was pulling you in, we were on Rachel’s front lawn and she came out to check out our injuries. Do you realize how many variables had to fall perfectly into place for things to have worked out the way they did? Talk about fate.
