Lullaby
Elizabeth L. Iacono


At two years old William Mulder doesn't know much 
of the world.  He doesn't know that there are people 
out there who want him for purposes that are not 
good.  He doesn't know that he is a special child, 
with special gifts that most other children do not 
possess.

He doesn't know that his parents sacrificed 
everything, their jobs, lives, families, and 
identities to protect him.

What he does know is that Daddy always makes time 
to watch baseball on TV with him, and even though 
he doesn't quite know what is happening in the game, 
he likes sitting on Daddy's lap.

He knows that sometimes, in the very early morning, 
Mommy really loves it if he jail-breaks from his 
crib and sneaks into bed with her and Daddy.  
He knows that he likes the way Mommy smells and 
kisses him.

He knows they love him very much.  Which is all 
he needs to know.
