My eleven-year-old daughter, Fiona, reminds me of a much younger
version of herself today. She can barely sit still for all the excitement
and anxiety coursing through her. She shoves a too-big forkful of my
dad’s famous chocolate chip pancakes into her mouth and talks around the
bite.
“Will the mooffers get to the new houshe berfore usssh?”
Her words come out garbled because she’s got her cheeks stuffed like a
chipmunk.
“Chew first,” I say.
My dad smiles over at Fiona. “The moving van should already be in
Ohio. They’ll meet you at your new house tomorrow.”
“Where will the movers sleep tonight?” Fiona’s eyes go wide with
concern, as always. My girl’s heart is too big and too good for this world.
“I don’t know,” I grumble around a bite of sausage.
“Chew first,” Fiona says, tossing my words back at me with a glint in her
eye.
She carries on with more rapid-fire thoughts and inquisitive statements as
I finish my breakfast in silence. Her barrage of questions flows like the
Mississippi after a rainstorm. It’s understandable. Fiona’s lived in the same
house for as long as she can remember. We’re about to move to a new state,
sight unseen.
Margot and I lived in an apartment when we were first married, but we
moved out when Fiona was two. Our combined salaries as doctors in
residence, along with the nest egg her parents gave us, made it possible to
purchase a home in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in St. Louis.
Margot.
I shake my head and blow out a long breath, attempting to bring my
thoughts back to the moment and my daughter’s antics.
I can’t help but smile at Fiona. I’m not known for my excessively warm
bedside manner, or for letting smiles freely crack across my face. My mother
used to tell me she savored my smiles like a gourmet chocolate mousse after
supper. I picture her standing in the kitchen, a warm grin and her soft voice as
she said, “Your smiles are sweet, rich, and worth the wait.” I never felt that I
had to change my naturally reserved nature for her.
