“I think the animals we love always love us back unconditionally. Forever." Rosemary was looking down at his feet, a soft smile on her face.
"You really believe that?"
She met his gaze. "I do."
Just then, Rosemary crouched down and picked up a smooth, flat stone with a hole that went straight through it.
"Huh." She held it up to her eye.
"Don't tell me you have a secret rock collection, too?" he smirked.
"No, I've just been looking for one like this. It feels... rather serendipitous.”

“It was like coming home; to a place and a feeling that was both familiar and unknown. Traipsing across the hilly woods of her Ozark land, taking worn paths and exulting in the landmarks of trees and creek and clearing in search of an elusive critter or bird. Finding instead something new or breathtaking where she least expected it: a clutch of minuscule bluebird eggs in a cavity where she had only seen woodpeckers, a spotted fawn curled nose to tail in the brush of an untended fencerow, a hollow oak that homed a hive of bees, its walls of waxy cells thick with golden honey.
The comfort of sameness, the astonishment in the unanticipated.”
