Daisy nodded and went to ask Doc Appleby if that would be okay.

Daisy just sat as she had no idea what to say "Lily, you want your father to come and see you?"

Daisy smiled "I know you will sugar."

"What is it Enos?" Daisy asked.

Daisy smiled "Lily, I hope you grow up to be kinda like how Luke was to me and Bo. . .you've got quite a few cousins to look over."

Enos smiled nervously "Hey Dais"

(Well hope you get to someday. . .really good) Lily sighed as she reached over for Daisy's hand.

Just then Daisy and Bo come down.

Lily closed her eyes and listened (You ever heard Charlie Daniels sing Awesome God? My dad has some contry gospel thing. . .yeah . . .hey you ever heard one called Amazing Grace My Chains are Gone?)

Jesse smiled patting Enos on the back "Yeah, I think Daisy could relate."

Lily nodded "That one." (Know funny fact my great grandma (my moms grandma) her favorite was How Great Thou Art. . .my fav is Awesome God. . .leas one of them. . .and We Wanna See Jesus lifted High.)

Lily nodded "Yeah. . .could you sing me that song I really love. . .um. . .I forget the name, but that one we sing at church sometimes"

Jesse smiled "Enos. . .Daisy loves ya no matter what. . .I can tell. . .from everything she does with ya." (I know. . .It's cause of elections for our govenor)

Lily nodded "That's what I mean. . .I'd probably be dead if I was still with my other parents. . .you and daddy brought me to church and loved me and a lot of things that I didn't get."

Bo, who was up there with her smiled "Naw. . .it ain't that Daisy. . .he's just nervous. He don't want to mess up." Daisy sighed. Back in the kitchen Jesse came in "Ya wanted to talk to me Enos?" (I'm bout to go in a bit, but anyway. . .I don't have school tomorrow so I can chat a little before you go to school)

Lily thought for a minute "Where I Come From" she sighed "I just am thinking about that right now. . .where I came from."

Enos smiled "Thanks Luke. . .If you'd get Uncle Jesse to talk to me I think I'd feel a lot better."

Lily relaxed a bit "Mama could you sing me a song?" she asked (thanks. . .yours was cool too)

Lily looked confused "What mama?" (You see the song I sent ya?)

Enos looked shocked "NO! no no no. Luke, it's complicated."

Enos nodded "Well that's all she has to love me for really."

"I don't rember." Lily said "But I kNOW it was me."

Enos shook his head "If you say so Luke. . .I know Daisy loves me, but I know it ain't cause I'm strong and able to protect her. . .I sure ain't brave."

"It was mine." Lily insisted "I did it all wrong and. . .It shouldn't have happend."

Agreeing to that Min. . .last weekend I rode my bike for 40 minutes saturday and sunday and somehow I lost two pounds. . .like where did that happen?
