Sophie

After we sat to watch paw patrol, we sent Nathan to take a bath and sent him off to sleep. Logan and I enjoyed a quiet night as we sat to watch another movie, cuddled up on the couch and drinking a glass of wine.

By nine in the evening, he got a call from New York and had to log on to his computer for a virtual meeting with his boss in New York. Lexie made her way out of her room and sat with me on the couch. She looked pensive, giddy, and a little too happy, and I just knew something was up with her. I turned around to face her, bending my knee and resting my foot on the sofa. "Ok, spill it. Something's up. I know you, what's going on?" I said looking straight at her.

She giggles, and turns to face me, bending her knee just like me. "Sophie...my dear, dear Sophie. You look beautiful today, did I tell you that? You're glowing." she says

And it was not going to be an easy storm. Sophie sighed as she laid sound asleep on her stomach. She looked so peaceful, so beautiful. I leaned down, kissed her shoulder, as I slowly trailed my hand down from her back to her waist. She sighed, stirring lightly, making me smile. I slowly trailed my hand down to her thigh, and rose her nightgown to her waist, exposing her laced underwear. She looks absolutely sexy.It poured down hard. I could hear the rain beginning to pour down harder. A few minutes after, I saw the first lightning, followed by the thunder soon after. It was a faint thunder, but still, close by. By the end of the third thunder, Nathan screamed. "Mommy! Daddy!

I don't know why I always get so scared. Maybe the fact mom had breast cancer, and grandma died for the same reason always has me on edge.Since the year mom died, I have been going to get my usual mammograms every six months. Up to now, everything seems to be good. I had my gene test last time I went and the doctor told me that it looked as though I did not inherit the gene that caused mom to have cancer. Nonetheless, I still get checked every six months without a miss.I was so nervous that I panicked when I couldn't find my phone, later to feel stupid when Logan pointed that I had it in my hand the whole time. Maybe I'm just overreacting a little. Everything will be fine, right?"Ready to go?" Logan said as

Could it be possible for me to be expecting right now? I mean, I've honestly been so busy that I haven't kept track of my cycle since I moved here.And, let's be honest, before Logan and I got back, I was getting no action whatsoever. So, I wasn't taking birth control, nor was he using any protection. God, this has to be a dream."I...I don't know to be honest. I mean, I guess September?...maybe August... No, wait...September...oh, no." I closed my eyes holding my head. I was so darn confused right now."You know, Carol is a good friend of mine. Why don't I ask her to make room for you? You

Kaitlyn is ugly because she's very rude. Me. Omar says it's because she's a diva. I don't know what he means by this, but I guess that just means I don't like divas either."Who can tell me the words that are written on the board?" Mr. Omar asks the class. I wish McKenzie was in my class. I really liked her coming to my house yesterday. She is so funny. "Nathan, how about you buddy? Can you tell me what words I wrote on the board?"

It was his birthday today, finally turning five years old.After my twins were born, we git married, and it didn't go past two years before I was pregnant again with my beautiful baby girl. We decided to name her Ruth Abigail, after Logan's auntie. She was born close to my birthday on the 13th of November. After that, we went by for three more years until I became pregnant with my baby boy, Daniel, or Tarzan, as Logan likes to tease-call him, which by the way, we are naming him after his uncle, Daniel Halloway, who lives in California.I found that until Logan came to Tennessee, his uncle was helping them out because his dad, Charles, had a hard time making ends meet.

    Logan"We're here. This is your home, little ones." I say as I hold the baby carriers in front of our home. I placed baby Sam's carrier down slowly and opened the car door for Sophie, holding out my hand for her. She smiles as she reaches out and carefully gets out of the car. She looks so beautiful with her afterglow. Motherhood looks so beautiful on her. I surely must have done something right to deserve this woman. She's a blessing to me, to my boys, to my family, to my life.We made our way inside and were shocked as we were surprised by our family and friends with a big welcome home party for Sophie and my boys. A lot of our townfolk were here as well, welcoming our twins home. There was food everywhere, along with blue balloons, and streamers inside and outside our home. Everywhere I looked, there were people, kids running, smiling, and having a great time. Music played in the back to enlighten the atmosphere. It made me feel so proud of being part if this town."Wow, hey gu

    Sophie (May 26th)The months went by flying so fast. Between work, my belly growing and the wedding coming up I was feeling both excited and anxious. I've been getting Braxton hicks all day. I'm only five months along, but my belly looks big compared to how I was with Nathan. He is so impatient, kicking already and moving so much.Oh yes, you heard right, I'm having another boy.We decided to name him Steven Anthony, Tony for short. It just fits him. I mean, yes, Anthony is his second name, but calling him Steven in front of Steven just got confusing, plus, Steven just proposed to Audrey and if they decided to have a baby together shortly, I'm sure they will name him Steven as well.I stood before the mirror, I wore a boho style laced dress with a low back and a deep V-shaped cut in front. I wanted something simple, and the dress that Ashley and I found was perfect, I still had a few months to go, so I'm sur

I wanted this day to be perfect for my best friend. Troy deserves the best wedding ever.I wanted to make sure everything was perfect for him. I tried my best to get everything done without having to worry him or Dylan.I checked on the tables, the decoration, the bar, everything. It had to be perfect. My heart was content as I see everything exactly how we had planned. Now the only thing to do was to wait for the wedding to start."Baby, will you slow down. I don't want you to overdue yourself, remember...the baby. You gotta rest, that's what the wedding planner is for. Don't make me call Loretta. Come on, take a breather will you?" Logan says as he pulls me to him. He hugs me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my lips. Loretta was my doctor.

    SophieI was anxious. I don't know why, I mean, it's not the first time Logan and I go out on a date. This was a weekly thing we did back in high school. We loved spending time together, but for some reason, I was nervous.He looked stunning, wearing a black suit with a dark blue shirt and matching tie. I decided on a simple black dress that hugged my body perfectly. It was about mid-thigh length, with a low round cut in the front. I wore black stilettos and a long winter coat since it was snowing out already. It was pretty cold out, but I was still warm by the coat and the car heater. It was going to be a while before I became accustomed to the weather here again. The California weather is so unpredictable. It could be December and 90 degrees Fahrenheit out. Yet, it could be May, and be pouring outside. Luckily, this winter was not so harsh here. Sure, it was showing, but it was very light and was not as cold as I remember.W

    Sophie (two weeks later)We were getting closer to Christmas. During the weekend, Logan and Nate helped decorate the whole house, and we decorated the Christmas tree with Kenzie's help. The place looked beautiful, every detail was exactly how I imagined it.I woke up feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Logan stirred in his sleep as I moved his hand away from my waist. I turned, kissing him on his lips getting a smile in return. "I love you, dork," I said kissing him again and going straight to the restroom. I went for a quick shower, brushed my teeth, placed on comfy clothes, and began my day. It was still a bit of a struggle because of my cast, but little by little I began to adjust.I made breakfast for my two favorite men, woke up Nate, and got him ready for his last week of school before we went off to Christmas and New Year's break.

    SophieThe days that followed soon after the accident was not easy for me at all. When I got to go home after five exhaust days, Logan reluctantly made me rest all day for three days straight. I wasn't allowed to get up unless it was for the bathroom or shower. Logan and everyone treated me with so much care and love, but it was so smothering. True, I felt pampered but overwhelmed since I was limited to the things they allowed me to do.Nate and Kenzie were still being bothered by Kaitlyn as the news of her mom being transferred out of the hospital to jail. The thought that she may go to jail for a long time made her scared. I can't imagine how she feels, she is so little and feels abandoned. I hope Steven gets custody of here soon and they can reconcile. She needs a good home.She was already feeling overwhelmed not having her dad in her life.

I tried to sit up, but my head began to throb, and my hand felt like a million stabbing needles as I realized it was in a cast.I grunted as soon as I felt the shooting pain. "Sophie...baby, are you ok?" I hear Logan's voice. I immediately realized he was asleep, in a sitting position on a chair near me. "Logan. What...what am I doing here? Why is my arm in a cast?" I grunted as I bring my hand to my temple.It seems that my head decided to throb harder and spin faster now that I was sitting with Logan's help."Babe, it's ok.
