“Hi, Greg.” She stepped back to let him in with a bright smile. “Thanks for being such a good sport.” He looked at her uneasily. “What am I expecting, exactly? Can’t say I’ve ever been to a baby shower before.” “Oh, some silly games, some snack food, some cake. It won’t be too terrifying.” She cast him a teasing glance as she bent over Cora to pick her up. “Somehow I don’t feel so reassured.” He laughed. “So where are we headed?” “The Cedar Glen Elementary School. They’re holding it in the gym there.” Greg nodded, then he inwardly grimaced as he thought of something. “I was supposed to bring you a present, wasn’t I?” Emily turned around, the baby in her arms, her bright eyes meeting his with an easy smile. “Greg, you coming with me to this thing is my present. Trust me. Thanks for just coming along.”
