Winnie And Lark Quotes

“Lark Barnes wasn’t much older than me, yet she was married and pregnant with twins. On bed rest for the last few months, she was trapped in her updated Craftsman-style house. Thanks to Bailey, my new job involved caring for Lark during the day.
Petite with spiky dark hair, Lark needed the help too. She was all belly these days. In fact when I arrived at the house that morning, I found her stuck in bed.
“I’m beached!” she cried as I entered the bedroom.
After a little effort, I tugged her out of the bed and helped her into the bathroom.”

“I vaguely remember having a waist,” Lark said, waddling into the room. “I could see my feet too. They weren’t great feet, but I liked looking at them.”
“You’ll see them soon then you won’t appreciate it. All the stuff that bothers you now will become a faint memory once you have the babies.”
“How do you know?” she said, teasing me. “You read that in a book? I get enough know-it-all crap from Raven who watched a TV show and is therefore an expert.”
I brought her a glass of low fat milk and English muffins with low fat cream. Lark frowned at the food then smiled up at me. “If I sound bitchy, blame the hormones. You didn’t know me before I was preggers, but I was a saint.”
Grinning, I handed her the remote and placed a pillow under her feet.”
