the friday 56


Rules: 

*Grab a book, any book. 

*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader (If you have to improvise, that's ok.) 

*Find any sentence, (or few, just don't spoil it) 

*Post it. 


I'm reading The Four Winds


From page 56: 
 A baby's cry filled the room.
"A beautiful little girl with a good set of lungs."  Rose cut and tied off the umbilical cord, then wrapped the baby up in one of the many blankets they'd knitted over the long winter and handed the bundle to Elsa.  

Elsa took her daughter in her arms and stared down at her in awe.  Love filled her to the brim and spilled over in tears.  She'd never felt anything like it before, a heady, exhilarating combination of joy and fear.  "Hello, baby girl."
