Ronnie presses her forehead to my cheek. “I just wanted to say it.”
“Well, I’m glad you did.”
We turn our attention back to little Jaxx, knowing in a few months we’ll have two babies to look after in addition to him. Our family is growing and I’ve never been happier in my life. Some people need a lot to make them happy, but to me this is paradise. My reason for living. I’d never imagined that I’d be worthy of such a picture perfect version of pure freedom. And it’s all thanks to Ronnie and her ability to take a chance on someone who didn’t think they deserved a second one.
