I repeated his name as Mom pulled something from her pocket. “This came today.” She held up a letter. “Your father will be skiing in town next week,” she said. I didn’t tell her I knew all about Daddy’s plans from Sean. The last I’d heard, though, Daddy was coming during spring break. Mom continued. “Evidently, your father’s bringing Tyler, your stepbrother, too.” I nodded. “And…” She paused, rereading the letter. “A boy named Sean Hamilton.” I smiled, remembering the tall surfer I’d met last Christmas on the beach while visiting Daddy. “He’s just a friend I met when Carrie and I were out in California,” I explained. What I didn’t say was that Sean had just started writing to me. I had talked to him on the phone after my birthday, when Tyler called, and he’d sent a letter soon after that. It was just a friendly letter, telling about his classes and his niece and nephew. Nothing heavy, though he’d asked to exchange email addresses. She fingered the envelope from Daddy.
