    It’s a gift.

It’s not.

What do you mean? It's for us to celebrate the babythey’ve come a long way bearing gifts.

We don’t have to accept all gifts.

It’ll keep until he does if we keep it in a cool, dark plac . .

. . Where they’ve kept it.

                             Probably years.         Please.  A new mother should be considered.

She shouldI should . . be comforted . that would be comforting.

    Couldn’t we just keep it and regift it . .

. . To someone who would the courage to say Thank you, but no thank you?

 

Mary.

Joseph.
