The second one arrives quieter. This shouldn't.
The first time, everyone came. The second time she knows exactly what she's doing, and nobody thinks to send anything. The Second Edition is three pieces for her: a cardigan long enough to wrap in, a salve for the hands that are always in water, and a candle for the end of the day.
Nothing for the baby. Nothing she has to learn. The good version of what she made do with the first time.
Why we built it
The second baby gets the hand-me-downs. She had the ordinary version of all of this the first time, and this is the one she'd have chosen.
The pieces, and why
there. elsewhere, Long Shawl Collar Cardigan in Greige
The one she'll live in.
A long, open cardigan with a deep shawl collar, knit from sustainable yarns in a soft greige. Easy over a slip, a t-shirt or pajamas, and long enough to wrap.
AUNU, Mānuka Salve
For the dry, tender places.
A whipped balm of mānuka honey, oats and oat kernel oil, rich but light, for hands, elbows and cheeks. From a small Brooklyn brand, in a bright yellow tube that lives by the sink or in the bag. Steroid-free, 1.7 fl oz.

Lit once the house is down.
Orange peel, apricot and pear over jasmine and white patchouli, finishing on vanilla, amber and oud. Handmade in New York in coconut and soy wax, in a matte ceramic vessel that stays once the wax is gone.
