64. Rocco Lombardi

Vincenzo and I were sitting on the floor against our couch. It didn't get much use these days with me chasing Angelina around. We had closed off the two exits to the living room and Angelina was running around playing. In the few days since he'd been back, Vincenzo had just loved to watch her play and it gave me a much needed break.

Angelina was currently hobbling around bringing us, well mostly me, back various toys. She ran over and gave me one of her stuffed animals, a little koala bear.

"Papa," she gurgled as she set it in my lap.

"Thank you," I mused back as she giggled and ran off to get another. I set it down and added to my ever-growing pile.
