Amy sighed and groaned. She was tired and sick to her stomach.
"Are you okay," Bob asked rubbing her shoulders.
"Bob I have something to tell you," Amy said, "and I'm not sure if you'll like it."
"Tell me anyway," Bob said.
"I just found out I'm kind of pregnant," Amy said.
"How can you be "kind of" pregnant?"
"I am pregnant," Amy corrected, "I know you're not happy about it-"
"Say who," Bob said, "Look this is unexpected but it's a blessing."
"Mom," Teddy said coming out, "Dinner will be ready in a few minutes."
"Thanks honey," Amy said, "Could you get Toby and Charlie after you're done cooking?"
"I'll do it mom," PJ said.
"Thanks PJ,"
During dinner Teddy glared at PJ throughout the whole meal.
"Teddy come on. How long is this fight going to continue."
"Until you understand why I'm mad at you," Teddy said.
"You act like this is a personal thing," PJ said.
"It is a personal thing," Teddy replied, "How would you feel if I made a promise to you and then broke it"
"Skyler pointed out that would be unfair to her sister," PJ said.
"Skyler pointed out that would be unfair to her sister," Teddy mocked.
"Oh that's real mature," PJ said.
"You know what just shut up," Teddy said, "You're so clueless."
"ENOUGH WITH THE FIGHTING," Amy said very firmly.
"But mom tell Teddy not to be mad at me," PJ whined.
"Well PJ you made a promise and you broke it. How would you feel if you were in Teddy's shoes."
"Okay but it doesn't even matter," PJ said.
"It matters to me," Teddy said, "It felt like you don't even love me anymore."
"Teddy," PJ said, "I do love you and you are pretty much one of the few people I trust 100 percent. The other stuff is just technical mumbo jumbo"
Toby then decided to dump a bowl of peas on his head.
"TOBY," Amy scolded, "That's not what big boys do"
Toby stuck out his tongue.
"Looks like someone needs a time out," Amy said picking him up
But Toby didn't get the idea of time out. He kept running out of the chair and running around.
"Sit down," Amy said.
Toby just kept getting up.
"Toby this isn't a game," Amy said frustrated.
Time out worked well with PJ and Gabe and Charlie. Teddy never needed it.
Meanwhile Charlie decided to hit Gabe over the head with a plate.
"CHARLIE NO," Bob scolded, "I'm going to have to tell mommy."
"Okay," Charlie said.
Finally Amy gave up. She brought Toby back to the table.
Bob told Amy about what Charlie did.
"It was only a paper plate," Charlie said.
"That's not the point," Amy replied, "You did something that was a no no and tried to hurt your brother."
"Sorry mommy," Charlie said.
"And who else do you have to say sorry to," Amy instructed.
"Sorry Gabe," Charlie said.
"It's not a problem," Gabe said, "I'm tough."
Toby started fussing. Charlie had taken a plastic fork and jammed it to his hand.
"CHARLIE," Amy scolded, "What's with you today."
"I dunno," Charlie said.
"I don't know is not good enough young lady," Amy said.
She stood Charlie up and looked her in the eyes.
"I love you," she said, "But because you intentionally hurt your brother you're going to be punished. You can't watch the wriggles for three days"
Charlie spit in Amy's face. Amy took a deep breath because she wanted to control her anger.
"Guys," Amy said, "Can you give me a minute to talk to Charlie alone?"
Bob took the kids out of the room.
"Charlie," Amy said, "Are you angry for some reason?"
"Yeah," Charlie said, "You said you'd take me to the Wriggles concert and you didn't."
"I'm sorry," Amy said, "I wasn't feeling well. I'll take you to the next concert. I promise."
Amy smiled. The kids were a handful but she loved them all. She was so happy she was having another baby.
"Thanks mommy," Charlie said.
