Epigraph

Monday's child is full of grace.

Tuesday's child is fair of face.
Wednesday's child is full of woe.
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving.
Saturday's child works hard for a living.
Sunday's child is blithe and gay, and good and kind in every way.

Dedication

With heartfelt gratitude to my "old" critique group:

Heather Harphyam-Kopp, Linda Shands, Linda Clair, Michele Wilson, Tonya Johnson

Thanks for your encouragement---and for believing in Emma
