Maybe "You're Home Now" or something that fits the recurring pattern of those words?
I need it to be 'when he prayed it was to the same God', because it's meant to imply it's the same God for both the Jewish mother and the Catholic father. However, you're right about the second--that's a typo, and I fixed it.
How about this for the smile: 'So at least you got to see a lot of things before--'
'That's true.' He smiled at her. He had a peculiar smile, warm as rabbit soup, soft as milkweed. She had trusted his smile. It meant that things were good. It meant that everything was right. 'Jacob and I went everywhere you can think of. Our parents died when I was just a little boy, and Jacob was afraid we'd be separated by foster parents, so he ran away with me. He worked, and I helped, and we went everywhere.'
And for the foreshadowing with the threes: ut I'm not part of that, Anna Maria thought. And the next day she went to the city to buy a new dress.
It was four years after she had dropped out of college. She was standing in front of a window looking at something beautiful when Mordecai took her shoulders gently.
Do either of those work? Also, if you find the typographical error you mentioned above, plz say!
♥ Thank you so, so much for taking all this trouble.
