Preface
Edward POV
It has been four years since my sweet wife was taken from me. Bella died during the birth of our second daughter, there was nothing that could have saved her. I try to stay strong for my two girls, but I sometimes break. My first daughter, Lily was only one at the time she died and poor Renesmee never got a chance with her mom. Lily is now five and Renesmee is now four. I don't regret having my daughters, they are my world and they keep me going.
My girls look nothing alike. Lily is a spitting image of me; she has my bronze hair and green eyes whereas Renesmee looks just like Bella. Renesmee has Bella's big brown eyes and curly brown hair, I see Bella every time I look at Renesmee. My girls are both really small for their age; I guess it runs in the family. My mom and sister are both small and petite.
I live right down the road from my parents, Carlisle and Esme. My mom watches my daughters on Monday and Thursday while I go to work. Alice, my little sister and her husband Jasper watch Lily and Renesmee on Wednesdays, and my older brother Emmett and his wife, Rosalie watch the girls on Tuesday. I am so grateful for my family's help; I couldn't make it without them.
I work as a doctor in Forks, Washington. I get Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off. On the weekends we normally go visit Charlie. He's been pretty lonely ever since Bella passed away and I promised Charlie I would keep the girls in his life.
My life is pretty hectic between my girls and work, but I manage. I can't say that I'm the perfect father but I try my hardest. I love my girls with all my heart and tell them that everyday. Ever since Bella died I realize how quickly someone can be taken from you, so I try to never miss a moment to spend with my girls.
This is my crazy life, and I love every second of it.
