Tom stepped out onto the opening between the two sections of the log cabin and shaded his eyes with his big hand. “Git down,” he shouted. “Git down and come in.” Alice looked a little apprehensive. She had gotten to know the Blessings when the Monahan family stayed at Rusty’s farm during part of the war years, but she had been only half grown. She had not seen them since. “What if it turns out they’ve already got somebody to stay with Mrs. Blessing?” she asked. Rusty suspected that question had been on her mind for some time, but this was the first time she asked it. He remembered the way Tom had answered a question once. He said, “We’ll burn that bridge when we get to it.” His comment served only to increase her concern. Tom raised his strong arms to help her down from the wagon. “Is this Josie?” he asked, smiling. “Lord how you’ve changed.” “I’m Alice, Mr. Blessing. I’ve come to stay and help take care of your wife.” “Alice? Then you’ve really changed.”
