our daughtersThey lived, in my mind. Our daughters, two precious little girls, one with wavy brown hair like yours, the other blonde, a throwback to your mother. Both with big brown eyes, like ours. You carried one on your shoulders, while the other held my hand and skipped along with her shoelaces untied, and the smile on your face was the biggest I’ve ever seen it. They lived, in my mind, and you killed them the day you left me. You say I should save my grief for something moreour daughters
