"It's a good thing he's back on track. After all, he has a son now." I looked at the little one callingmommy with his face upturned toward me. "He's a lucky star. Look at how cheerful he is." "I used to lose sleep just thinking about this kid. Now, even if I'm not hfor a few days, we can sleep soundly." Donovan laughed heartily. "We can even laugh in our sleep."
