(Trudy)
It had been a new day and I had risen with the sun. I had to get up early so that I could make Hugh's special Christmas breakfast. Everything had been laid out perfectly as I set the table and pulled out his chair. Walking into the living room I noticed the trees and the decorations and I smiled. This was the feeling no matter how bad things were the last four years Christmas day was always spent with all of us together. Though this time James isn't with us I know once I get Hugh back we can work together and get back our son
This was pure bliss, despite the chaos of the past couple of months, just this moment of serenity and normalcy fills me with pure bliss. Even if for the moment it is nothing but Hugh indulging me. Just like yesterday, I want him to keep indulging me in my selfish wishes
As that thought ran through my mind Hugh came down the stairs
"Good morning" he yawned
"Good morning Hugh, I made breakfast"
