"Blake Marie get down stairs now". I yelled with a hint of frustration in my voice.
I rushed over and grabbed my brief case as I jumped around putting my heels on as I spotted my car keys.
"Okay, Okay Mom I will be right down" she yelled back to me.
"Make sure Caleb brushed his teeth, he always forgets." I reminded her as I felt arms wrap around my waist from behind. I smiled as I turned around to face my amazing wife of 13 years. She leaned in to kiss me just as we were interrupted by a 10 year old Blake jumping down the stairs.
"Eww gross, kissing is nasty" she mocked as she grabbed her lunch of the counter and was pulled into a hug by Ashley.
"We'll see what you say about that in 4 years huh?" she retorted slightly laughing like she was 14 all over again.
"Mama that is gross" she made a 'I am really grossed out face' and skipped to go get her backpack. I laughed gave a Ashley a kiss and was just about to yell for Caleb when little 7 year old boy's face appeared glowing face appeared at the bottom of the steps.
"Mommy was you just kissing Mama?" he asked slightly inquisitivley well holding back a smile.
"Yes I was" I said as I quickly kissed her cheek again.
" Now come on booger go get in the car before we are late" I said tickling him. He laughed and ran into Ashley's arms.
"Mama save me, save me" he screamed laughing hysterically. She laughed as she gave him a kiss on the top of his head.
"Come on babe were goin' to be late" I said grabbing his hand and practically dragging him out the door lightly pecking Ashley on the lips on my way out.
As I watched Spencer take the kids to school, I took the baby monitor off of the counter and plopped down in the corner of the sectional, I didn't have to be at the studio for another two hours so I had time to waste. Just as I put my feet up I heard and screeching cry at the other end. I smiled as I began to head towards the stairs.
"Hi, baby did you sleep good huh?" I said happily as I scooped her up in my arms and kissed her a 8 month KayLin was giggling as tickled her belly.
"Hungy" she said blabbed in her baby talk.
"I'm sure you are sweetie come on lets go get something to eat" I said walking down the stairs with her in my arms.
"What do you want to eat KayLin" I asked as I sat her down in her high chair against the granite counter tops.
"Cheeros, Cheeros" she clapped as she bounced up and down.
"Cheerios it is" I laid a handful of dry cheerios onto her table top.
While she was eating I did the dishes from Blake and Caleb's breakfast. As I was doing the dishes all I could think about was how incredibly lucky I was to have Spencer, she had given birth to all three of our beautiful children. Caleb and Kaylin both had her golden blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. Blake on the other hand had an exotic look with her deep rich, chocolate brown hair and bright green eyes. She had gotten Aiden's hair and eye color. Years back when we decided that we wanted to have kids, we chose him as the donor. He couldn't have been happier when we asked him then the day his own child was born. He was married to Kyla, they had one son Tyler, he looked exactly like his Dad; a mini Aiden. He adored him more than anything. I loved him for giving me the three greatest gifts of my life. I adored Spencer for carrying them all, another bonus to them was how each and every one of our children looked like her. She was so great to me and the kids. I don't know what I did to ever deserve her. I was ripped out of my thoughts when I felt something hit me in the back.
"Mama, mama" she screeched as she giggled at me.
"Ugg no KayLin no throwing things at Mama okay?"
"Otay mama" she replied
I walked over to her smiling lifting her out of her chair and taking cheerios out of her fluffy little curls, I set her down on the floor and she began to crawl into the living room to get her toys.
"Okay missy, you can only play for a little bit but then we have to get you to dressed, so we can go to the studio" I said walking over to where she was and sitting down where I was earlier as I propped my feet up on the couch.
I sat there and watched her take Caleb's Tonka truck and tried to figure out what exactly it did. She looked up at me in confusion. I laughed and knelt down on the floor as I helped her solve the mystery of what exactly the toy does. As I zoomed it around her she laughed in hysterics. I glanced up at the clock and it was, a quarter after 8:00am I had to be to the studio by nine.
"Shit!!" I yelled as I jumped up. Realizing what I had just said I covered my mouth.
I picked KayLin up as she began to wale in my ear from being interrupted from her play time.
"We have to get to the studio babe, so we need to get you dressed" I said trying to calm her down.
As I was putting a fresh diaper on her I realized that I still had to get ready. I pulled the blue t-shirt over her head. I scooped her up in my arms running down the hall way to my room grabbing a stuffed animal on my way out of her room. I set her on my bed with the toy and began to undress as I walking towards my walk-in closet. I grabbed a long sleeve shirt and a pair of blue jeans as I hurriedly grabbed a pair of heels on my way out of the closet. As I finished buttoning my blue jeans I looked at Kaylin to see her tossing her pink elephant off of the bed. I quickly grabbed the animal and gave it back to her before she had time to cry. I slipped into my heels while I was walking to the bathroom to clip my hair up and apply my make-up. I glanced up at the clock twenty minutes record time I thought.
"Kay, ready to go" I quickly picked her up and ran down stairs.
I set her down on the living room floor as I grabbed a file of papers and a few demo cds. I swung my purse over my shoulder. I grabbed Kaylin and started to walk out the door as I remember 'I need my keys'. I looked around the room and spotted them laying on the counter next to the sink. I ran over picked the keys up and handed them to Kaylin to keep her occupied. I set the alarm and off we were. When I opened the door to the studio I had baby in one arm cd's and papers in the other and keys in my mouth.
"Hey Ash" I heard from a distance 'is that who I think it is' I thought.
I turned to see exactly the face I hadn't seen in so long. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard my keys hit the ground.
