Behind the Scenes with Mom: Alice and Olivia's Perspective

Previously

…“Thank you, Liv,” Alice said, her voice clear and steady now. “For the cookie. And for… for telling me about the sun.” Olivia smiled, a bright, beaming smile that lit up her face. She took the cookie half and nibbled on it happily. “Anytime, Alice.” They sat there for a moment, sharing the cookie, the quiet hum of the house a comforting presence around them. The shadows in the room seemed to recede, and a sliver of sunshine finally managed to peek through the window, landing warmly on Alice’s hand. It felt like a promise. A promise that she was seen, that she was loved, and that her mom’s love was a vast, endless sky, big enough for all her children, and all their dreams.
