October 5, 2011

Tori was only a few weeks old and napping when it happened. On the news they talked about a fire, how a baby was overcome by smoke, and then… then they showed the stretcher and the backs of the paramedics working frantically to save the baby, and you could see the baby’s feet flop up [...]
