Golden Child
Mom, I really do have to give you credit. All of these years, you have honestly tried not to show that Bayley is your favorite, but I have always known. You do try so hard with the others, but your eyes light up naturally when she sits next to you. I think that you see yourself in her, your oldest granddaughter, despite your differences. You see the spunk that bubbles up in her to defy expectations and stick to her own ideas of fairness, the way that animals approach her, knowing that she understands them on a nonverbal level, and the lift of her chin as she digs down deep to brace herself and face a challenge. You also marvel at her grace, her empathy, her comfort in her own skin – things you never permitted yourself.
