“If all else fails, why not offer the doctor a little gift? What problem can’t that solve? You are just tooyoung and inexperienced in the ways of the world. In this day and age, who would help you without alittle. incentive?”

“Do you feel any better?”
The corners of Priscilla’s lips twitched slightly. “A little.”
“Oh, so you’re the doctor in charge of treating Priscilla, right?” Helen greeted warmly, eagerly grabbingLysander’s hand.

“It’s about balancing toughness and tenderness, but it also depends on the child’s own personality.”
“So, when I share the news with relatives, should I say we’re blessed with a precious son, or we’reblessed with a priceless daughter?”
Lynn couldn’t hold back anymore and interjected, “Just as long as you don’t say you’re blessed to be afather.”
