"Savannah Kinkurt! I told you to NOT touch Max! Leave him alone while he sleeps please?" Lucy asked in a short tone.

"Fine" she grumbled, stepping down from the mini-ladder positioned next to the playpen that held the sleeping 3 year old.

Savannah, also known as Savvy, skipped out of her grandparent's living room into the kitchen.

"Uncle Sam!" She screamed softly, stopping in her tracks as she saw her 12 year old uncle sitting next to his twin. Sam had just gotten back from a weekend trip to a camp. She and the twins had always been close because of the 6 year age difference.

"Hey there, no hug?" he asked, opening his arms to his spunky niece."

"Ok Savvy, can you go get your mother please?" asked her grandfather as he came inside, holding Sam's suitcase. The little girl dashed out of the room to come right back in, dragging her mother by her hand.

"Yes?" She merely asked as Savvy then darted past the adults into the yard. Lucy was a second away from running right after her but she stopped when she saw the familiar mess of brown locks of hair. Ruthie had opened the fence gate, letting herself and someone else in.

'Peter' Lucy thought, then turned around at the sign of hearing Max cry.

"Auntie R! AUNTIE R IS HERE!" Savvy sang, skipping back inside as Ruthie followed, shaking her head alongside her fiancée as they both laughed.

"Need any help?" Peter asked his soon to be father-in-law.

"No thanks Peter." He answered and then disappeared upstairs, the twins following. Just then Lucy came into view holding her son, Savvy at her side.

"Hey Luce! How's Max doing?" Ruthie asked of her nephew.

"He's alright, but is tired due to the amount of sleep he lost with that ear infection. Hey I'm going to head home, tell dad will ya?" she asked, her eyes desperate to put down the cranky boy and hyper girl.

"Yeah that's ok, see you soon!" Ruthie said as perky as possible, Peter opened the door for his sister/niece/nephew in laws and Lucy thanked him with a nod.

"DAD!" Ruthie screamed up the stairs.

"What?" he screamed back.

"Lucy left with her offsprings! Just saying." She replied, then sat down on one of the stools, her other half (almost) following suit.
