“I’m sorry. For not listening that night and for making you feel like you couldn’t tell me the truth.”
Tears filled her eyes.

“Ice cream…”

“Of course.”
As I scooped another bowl, I looked at the two of them sitting at my table.
My daughter.
My grandson.

And for the first time in a very long time, our family was beginning again.
