After the Justins arrived home, everyone changed their clothes and began preparing dinner.  Destiny was so quiet during dinner her father began to be concerned about his usually rambunctious little girl. Under normal conditions, no one else would be able to get any conversation in because of her constant ramblings—child gossip and questions. That is what he usually heard. He sat and watched her as she picked at her food, barely eating. Either Ruth, his wife and their son, Kyle had not noticed or they were just too grateful for a relatively normal dinner conversation to say anything. Her father determined that as soon as they were finished with dinner he would have a little talk with her. Continue reading “Simple Questions”
