My Safe Heaven

Grandma Lorelei

I slept like a baby that night. I knew my grandson would be quick to forgive me, not only because of the intense hate he has for his dad, but because he loved me too much to hold a grudge against me for long. But, I wasn't going to be selfish and use that soft spot of his as a weapon. I was ready to knee and plead if need be.

But Jason forgave too quickly, even without hearing the rest of the story. He didn't even pester me about the argument his parents had about him the night I shot his dad.

He came over when I beckoned on him and smiled when I called him my safe heaven. But, he was truly my safe heaven. He was the final gift the Lord sent to me to prove my parenting skills weren't that bad after all..

He laid in my arms like he usually did in the past. No matter how grown he might be, Jason never seized being my little boy. He never stopped acting like one either.

“ Can I ask you a question?” he adjusted and my hands went around him. Hi
