Name That Feeling

"Susan handed the baby to Margaret and knelt down. 'Ethan, can you look at me?'



'Don't want to.'



'Are you feeling sad? Mad? Glad? Afraid?'



Wanda watched closely. She couldn't help but envy Ethan, standing-albeit reluctantly-in the spotlight of all this loving attention. She wondered what would it be like to move through childhood holding hands with someone who insisted that you not only face your feelings, but name them." ~ Stephanie Kallos, Broken For You, p. 158
