Melt a Little Closer

Daphne

We’re on a break.

Words you never want to use to describe your 15-year marriage. High school sweethearts, I guess I should have known better than to think Conor and I would be the exception. Regardless of our situation, it doesn’t change the fact our children have proclaimed this year’s holiday miracle.

My husband is coming home.

We’re not on a break.

It’s been four months since I’ve seen the love of my life and I’m not about to make the same mistake twice. Daphne might think our relationship is on the rocks, but I’m going to show her exactly how I intend on fixing the fissures of our marriage.

Lucky for me, I’ve got two meddling kids to help.
