david called last night, and i watched my husband glow. he complained when he got off the phone, talked about how susan had saved him again, coming in after an hour and finding a way to get david off the phone. but he looked so happy.
and it was all i could do to keep smiling and not cry.
because it wasn't steve. the whole time he was talking to david i was hearing steve's voice in my head. i was thinking how steve wasn't ever going to be calling and i was never going to hear his voice again.
kerry's best friend called last night and i'm glad. i'm glad david is alive and well and part of our life.
but i was wishing it had been steve and i know it never will be steve again.
