All three kids were ecstatic about the new baby, all making bets on a brother or sister. Of course, the girls wanted a sister and Vander wanted a brother. I didn’t care. I wanted my basket-case wife to cut me some slack. We were out later than we’d planned, just because we were having a good time. I took them to an Italian restaurant where Gabriella could order anything off the menu she wanted without the meat, and the kids could fill up on pizza. It was good, a lot of fun, but something was up. Something was always up. Gabriella held my hand, and kissed me when I kissed her, but she was distant, and once again, that thing fell between us. That very thing that seemed to always show up. The one thing keeping me from building the solid foundation I should have built from the beginning. It wasn’t until the kids were in pajamas, vegged out in front of Disney that she finally opened up. I watched her get up from between Rowan and Vander and walk to the kitchen from my desk.
