Sarah looked down at the long, thin plastic item in her hand and let out a surprised yell. Three-year-old Ella toddled into the room and hurried to her mother.
"Mamma? Are you okay?" She asked urgently. Sarah looked down at her daughter. Smiling, she placed the plastic in her pocket and picked up her daughter.
"Yes, baby, I'm fine." She said, kissing the girl on the head. "What are you and daddy up to?" She asked.
"We're playin' hide and seek!" Ella said excitedly.
"Oh, then hurry and hide, silly!" She said. Ella laughed.
"No, mamma. Daddy hides now, not Ella."
"And how long has daddy been hiding?" Sarah asked.
"Mmmm-long time." She answered. "I decided I didn't wanna play any more so I played with my dollies and then I came to see if you was OK." Sarah laughed.
"Does daddy know that you don't want to play any more?" She asked.
"Nope!" Was the answer she received from her little girl. She put Ella down and stepped into the family room.
"Matt? Come here please!" She called. She laughed as she saw her husband slowly emerge from behind a chair. Ella laughed and walked over to her father.
"Daddy, I don't wanna play any more." She said.
"Oh. Thanks for telling me so soon!" He said jokingly. Ella giggled and held her arms up for her father to lift her up. He picked her up and spun her around.
A smile spread across Sarah's face as she watched her husband and son together. Matt saw her and sat their daughter down. He walked over to his wife and put his arms around her.
"Honey, we need to talk." She said to him.
"OK, go ahead." Matt said, backing up and sitting down. He motioned for her to sit next to him.
"No. We need to talk-alone." She said, tipping her head toward the three-year-old standing just feet away. "Hold on. Let me call my mom." Sarah walked over to the phone and picked it up.
"Hey mom, it's Sarah---I was wondering if maybe Ella could come over and hang out with you guys for a few hours---oh, yeah, everything's fine. Matt and I just need to have a bit of time to talk----thank you so much--- oh mom, you don't have to do that---ok---ok---see you in a minute." She turned back to her husband and daughter.
"Ella, Grandma Rosina is going to come over and pick you up, so go and get ready, OK sweetie?"
"Where are we goin?" Ella asked.
"You're going to go get some dinner then play back at grandma and grandpa's house."
"Yay!" Ella cried happily and ran to her room. She emerged a few minutes later with her new sandals on her feet.
"Ready!" She said happily. Two minutes later, the door bell rang. Sarah went over and opened the door, greeting Rosina with a warm hug.
"Mom, thank you so much. We really appreciate this."
"Oh, no problem!" She said. She leaned towards her daughter. "Want me to keep her over night so you two can have a bit of quality time?" She asked, raising her eyebrows. Sarah laughed.
"No, mom, we're fine." She said with a smile. Ella ran over and hugged her grandmother.
"Can we go to McDonald's?" She asked her excitedly.
"Wherever you want, dolly." She said. Sarah leaned down to kiss her daughter good bye, and Rosina and Ella were off.
When the door was closed, Sarah turned around to face Matt. He smiled at her.
"What's going on?" He asked, taking her hand and leading her to the sofa, where they sat down.
"Matt-." She began. Before continuing, she leaned in for a kiss, which Matt gave her happily. "Matt, um, how do I say this. OK. I'm-we're- going to have a baby. I'm pregnant!" Matt jumped up.
"This is awesome!" He cried. Sarah laughed. Matt took his wife's hand and stood her up, sliding his arms down her slender sides. He kissed her again.
"So you're happy?" She asked.
"Ecstatic." He answered. Sarah smiled largely.
"I love you." She said.
"I love you." Matt answered. He leaned down to Sarah's stomach. "And I love you too." He said. Giggling, Sarah pulled him up and they kissed again.
"Let's celebrate." Matt said. "Dinner, my treat."
"Sounds good to me!" Sarah said. She grabbed her purse, and with that, they left, both smiling, Sarah glowing a bit more than usual.
A/N: So what do you think? I will be introducing the other families/characters in the coming chapters, but first I want to know if I should continue. Review please please! Even if it's only one sentence long, please take less than a minute of your time to give me a bit of feed back. Thanks!
