The fading afternoon light washes through the living room window, painting long, amber rectangles over the familiar couch. Dust motes swirl lazily in the sunbeams. On the cushions, you and your small son are a tangled knot of rest, his little chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. The front door whispers open.

He crosses the room, lowers himself to his knees, and brushes a kiss against your forehead, his fingers combing gently through the baby's fine hair. "I'm home," he murmurs, his voice husky with adoration. How long have you been dreaming here, waiting for him?
