“They all have to leave one day, baby, but she won’t go before it’s time for her to branch out. Violet loves you more than anything. You chose to love her when you didn’t have to. That’s a special kind of love that nothing can come between. If he’s her father, just think of it as a blessing. He could have pushed her away. He could have said he didn’t want anything to do with her after being kid free for thirteen years. He could have done anything but what he did. Give him the chance you were given.”
