CHAPTER 18: WELCOME HOME
Years later, when Leo walks through our door, or Sophia comes in from work, or anyone we love arrives, the first thing I say is always the same:
**“Welcome home.”**
Not demands. Not rules. Not tests of obedience. Just welcome.
Because home isn’t a place where you’re controlled. It’s a place where you’re seen, heard, and loved exactly as you are. That’s the lesson we fought for, and the one we will always keep.
**THE END**
