Summary
Chrissy Cunnigham was born in a strange way.
Her mother had a home birth, not really common practice anymore with almost everyone going to hospitals for the birth of their child. But her mother was convinced by her beloved aunt to do so. Promising to assist. Her aunt, Lily, claimed that Chrissy was quiet coming out of the womb. A curious child was years of wisdom in her eyes.
Or she could just be saying that to make her feel better.
But nothing could explain the way flowers turned their heads to get a look at the newborn baby. How, when her aunt took her outside during the days her mother couldn't bear to look at her for half a second, they reached up, up, their petals tickling her feet. She remembered the scent of sweet floral plants, honeysuckle as her aunt sang her a lullaby. Chrissy can't remember the words now but she knew it had something to do with flowers, the mother earth.
