Gutter Pipes and Eggshells- Prologue- Mary Walkers Journal

May 22, 2002 

                  My son, Thomas Walker was born today. He is a little underweight at 5 pounds and 6 ounces. But I don't worry about that. He's beautiful. His hair is a honey colour, and he has the most splendid large blue eyes. They shine like stars. Burim wanted to name him Burim Walker Jr., but I told him that would be silly, and Thomas would be so much better. After a while, Burim agreed. I know this is what all moms say to there children, but I just know this; my son is going to shine. He will be the centre of attention wherever he goes. Although I know he's going to be amazing, I also know he's going to struggle. I can see it. I wish I could help him.
