“Sally, yer goin’ to want to take a look at his eyes,” Pa McGucket said. Ma McGucket frowned. “Okay.” She gently tilted Banjo’s head until he was facing her. “Hush, hush, baby boy, everything’s fine,” she whispered. Banjo’s eyes darted wildly around the room, never landing on one spot. But Ma McGucket could see clearly what her husband had wanted her to see. “Oh, sweet Lord.” “His eyes, they ain’t brown no more,” Pa McGucket said in a low voice. Ma McGucket shook her head. “No. They’re the same pretty blue what runs in the family.”- @thelastspeecher
