Unspoken
One day last week my boss pulled yet another late evening session. That usually meant him sitting at his desk going over the fine details of whichever case he had coming up in court the next day. Meanwhile, I was expected to quietly go through the filing cabinet pulling out the relevant files and placing them on his desk at just the right moment. We never spoke out loud during those long evenings because he saw conversation as superfluous. He knew his job and he knew that I knew mine, and that was all there was to it, or so it seemed.

A Companion in the Storm
Today was a day for her. She's standing in the middle of the kitchen, overwhelmed. She was trying to cook dinner, but the dishes weren't clean yet. That was because she had work today, and she hadn't had time since she'd gotten home. She had dealt with 11 toddlers at work for 6 years, and she'd come home and her own young children needed her attention, praise, conversation, stimulation, and validation.

Little Baby Boops
It started as a soft wailing. Ears that were sharply in tune with the cries of her child, the mother calmly walks to the pack-and-play that holds her 12-month-old son. The cries weren't urgent. They were grumpy, and she understood that he didn't want to wake up yet, but for some reason he had. There was discomfort in the cries, and the more time he had to fuss, the more awake he became, and the more prominent the sound of discomfort and pain became.
