Description
In this new book from the celebrated mother-daughter writing team of Patricia MacLachlan and Emily MacLachlan Charest, a mother reflects on the many things she loved best "before you came." In lyrical prose, she explains her joy at being able to share all those things with her child, who is now her most treasured thing of all. This gentle, wonder-filled celebration is the perfect gift for parents, children, and all those who have discovered the joy of sharing their world with someone new.
