After 3 Boys, We Gave Up Our Dream of a Daughter—Then My Husband Called Me to the Hospital and Said, “There’s a Baby Here”
“We already had a whole family.”
I smiled through tears.
“Then one day, another person needed somewhere to belong.”
Outside, Maya shouted:
“Mom! Dad! Come play!”
Marcus stood.
I took his hand and let him pull me up.
We walked toward the backyard together.
Not toward the daughter we’d imagined.
Toward Maya.
Exactly as she was.
