QUOTE : Dad pressed against my mind. Please, Allison. Let me, just this once, hold my son. <br />I shouldn't. Nothing good ever came from letting my father have his way. But I could feel his love for this baby. And even if he couldn't love me, I knew that at this moment, before the baby could grow up and become a disappointment to him, he truly loved him. <br />I slowly stepped away from the front of my mind, letting him fill that space, letting him feel through my hands, see through my eyes. <br />"He's amazing," Dad said through me. "You're amazing." He looked up at Violet, and she smiled.
