Epilogue

Pacifica sat on the back patio of their Arizona home one fall night looking up at a particular star constellation. "Mommy, I miss daddy," said a soft voice.

Pacifica looked down to see her daughter, Angelica, standing beside her lounge chair. Pacifica sat up and held out her arms inviting her daughter to sit in her lap.

"Look up there. Do you see that group of star that looks like a soup ladle?" She asked trying to use things her daughter would recognize.

"Yeah mommy!" Angelica said spiritedly.

"Well daddy once told mommy that anytime I missed him that I should look up in the sky and see the Big Dipper and know that he is here with me." Pacifica told her beloved daughter.

Angelica looked up at the stars and smiled content with the knowledge that her daddy was always with her. "Now let's get you back in bed. Okay?" Pacifica said to her child. As Pacifica was taking her daughter back to bed a cry rang out from the nursery. Pacifica sighed. "Go get in bed sweetie. I'll be in there in a second to tuck you in." Pacifica went to the nursery to tend to her son Nathaniel Tyrone Pines.
