After a few minutes, his mother returned to dowse the gaily decorated lamp on the small table that stood a few feet away from the crib, leaving the small nightlight mounted in the duplex outlet near the floor as the sole source of illumination in the nursery. His mother started to go out the door, then stopped halfway and paused as if she had forgotten something. She turned around and went back to the crib to check on her son. By the time she arrived, he was already asleep with his thumb in his mouth. She stood at the side of the crib for a moment, marveling that God had returned her baby boy after all the decades that had passed. She gave a silent prayer of thanks to the Lord for the blessings he had bestowed upon her and her son, then silently slipped out of the room, closing the door behind her.
