Quote by Maria V. Snyder

“Retire?” That was new. “Someone has to change diapers while you’re saving the world, love.” My heart melted over his willingness to retire for me and the baby. “Me? Save the world? So you’re a comedian and an expert diaper changer. Wow, did I hook a keeper or what?” He bowed. “You have the total package.”
