Broken Antler Fen I got a pocketful of sunshine

Pearl watched her youngest with 100% interest, following his every new and amazingly clumsy movement. She felt so proud of him learning to use his legs, a skill that she now realized took no short amount of work. It was simple task, but it was just so much bigger when her kid, her son, was accomplishing it, no matter how little progress was made.

Her little boy took notice of her voice, only upping her enthusiasm towards him. "Yeah! That's right, can you walk to mommy?" she said with motherly softness and encouragement. A thought reached her mind; she'd never thought she would ever say those words, but here she was, a leader of a pack with her loving husband, and four beautiful pups. How lucky she was.
