  My Rumple.

  I reached over and let my fingers draw little circles over her rounded belly as I drove down the highway, and she gabbed on the phone to Kathrine about crib bumpers. I smiled as I felt a little push back from my son. Just a little fist bump, I imagined, just to say “Hi,” and “I’ll be out soon.”

  Sometimes, I felt like the first part of my life had been played offside—like every move I made was pointless because I could never score from where I had been. Now things were in perspective, and though it wasn’t what I thought it was going to be, I knew I had the chance to make something of myself.

  For myself and for my family.

  Shakespeare said: “The course of true love never did run smooth.” Somehow, despite everything we had been through and how hard we had to run, we had come out onside—maybe not unscathed, but still better for what we had endured.

  Now the true goal of my life was evident. It was my game, my life, my dream.

  Not my father’s—mine.
