“. . . when I read those words again, I realized that my father’s journal was meant to be more than just a historical artifact—it is the cornerstone of a living legacy—an enduring family heritage where each generation can add their stories to keep “The Remembering” of how it was with us in our time. —Michael James Collins July 8, 1901”

“The brown leather corners have worn and faded to a pale sand. A few scratches score the front cover, embossed with a golden stylized peony, and the leather is patterned with darker blots from the fingers of busy women who gripped it with the loving, casual carelessness of familiarity. It's as fat as a sleeping cat on a rainbow pile of Ana's chiffon scarves, and it's my birthright and my curse.”

“A smell caught Kitty's attention, yanking her thoughts back to the present. The scent of someone she knew, but up on the roof? Curiosity had never hurt Kitty. She crept along, her feet silent on the roof tiles, following the peace, creamy smell. By Humpty Dumpty's shell, it was Darling Charming! Locked up in a metal box on the roof! Honestly, and people said that Wonderlandians were weird.”

“She smiled at him more frequently as they chatted about nothing in particular, pointing out various flowers and the occasional woodland animal to each other. They saw plump squirrels in the trees, pheasants in the brush, and a horned stag and his shy, delicate does gliding soundlessly through the shadows. On three separate occasions, he caught her gazing at him longer than she should. He felt distracted, entranced, and painfully alive as he watched her in the mellow autumn afternoon, dazzled by the coppery richness of her golden hair. Her innocence captivated him, and her guileless simplicity healed him somehow. He felt like a man whose fever had broken, flush with the euphoria of the first, tenuous return of strength- still weak, but buoyant with the hope of an eventual return to wholeness.”
