"Oh, she is quite lovely with a mop of dark hair and green eyes. You are always welcome to come visit her. She really seems to enjoy meeting people, and she is so clever! But then again... I may be biased."
"What do you think her father would say about me visiting?" I ask, and although my smile does not slip my eyes are serious. "Perhaps I will wait until Rose is old enough to seek me out herself." That may not be so very old.
"Apparently, Rose did not like the idea of my leaving her, so she healed me. I am not sure how, after all, she was only born moments before but... but it was her. Told you she was clever."
"The power to heal is a great gift," I say. "And it can also be a burden." I sip my tea. "Has your husband told you any of what he thinks Rose might be able to do?"
