Well, Here it is! The moment you've ALL been waiting for! Please read AND review! Thanks!

Cody burst into the cafe and yelled,

"MOM!?" Abigail came dashing into the kitchen.

"Cody! What are you doing home from school?! Are you ok?"

"Im fine, Mom! Mrs Thornton's gonna have the babies!"

"NOW?!", asked Becky who had come running in behind Abigail.

"Yes! She sent me to get mom!" , Cody said, panicked. Abigail didn't even take of her apron She grabbed some towels and the hot water from the stove and ran towards the school with Becky and Cody right behind her. When they arrived, Carson and Faith were already there. Jack was nowhere to be seen though.

I found Mr Avery and he said Jack was out on patrol. He went to go find him.", Robert said. Carson and Faith got right to work with Abigails help. First they helped Elizabeth lie down on the floor.

"I could take the children outside.", said Becky.

"Elizabeth smiled weekly and said,

"Thankyou Becky. That would be a very good plan. I really don't want Opal to get a visual aid in answer to her question from a few weeks ago." Abigail and Becky chuckled and Becky led the children out of the school house. As they were leaving, They saw Jack riding as fast as he could on Sergeant. As he reached the steps, he jumped off and ran in. Cody took the horse and tied him up.

The Children were too distracted by what was going on inside to be interested in games. At one point the cringed as they heard Elizabeth yelling out in pain.

"I don't think I want to ever have a baby. It sounds scary.", Opal said.

"You'll probably change your mind when you grow up and get married.", Becky told her.

"Is Mrs Thornton going to be ok?", Emily asked.

"She'll be fine, Molly Sullivan said as she came over to the kids. The news had spread fast and now half the town was waiting outside for news of the babies' arrival. After what seemed like forever, Elizabeth stopped yelling and The people outside could here the cries of two babies. There had been a little crying several minutes before but Now there were two, so it was really loud. A few moments later Abigail came out smiling with tears of joy on her face.

"It's one of each!"

"YAAAAY!", shouted the kids, jumping up and down and hugging each other. The adults were laughing and crying and and hugging each other as well. The kids were told to go home and go to the Thorntons the next day to see the babies. They reluctantly obeyed.

After Elizabeth and the babies had been cleaned up and settled in the Infirmery, Bill, Abigail, Lee and Rosemary were called in.

"We have something we want to tell you all. The twins are named, Abigail Rose and William Lee Thorton.", Jack said. The four people were obviously very touched.

"Those are perfect names!", Rosemary gushed softly.

"Thankyou. It's an honor.", Abigail said, tearfully. The others nodded in agreement.

"Bill, Abigail, you have both treated us like your own son and daughter. We would like for you to be our Babies' Godparents."

"Wow. We-we'd be honored.", Bill said.

"I accept. And I'm sure Bill does too.", Abigail said, hugging Elizabeth then Jack.

"Of course I accept!", Bill agreed.

"We still want you and Rosemary as well as Clara and Jesse to be honorary aunt and uncles. Florence and Molly and Dottie will be asked to be honorary aunts as well. After all, It takes a village to raise a child.", Elizabeth said with a smile.

"Of course. I can't wait to spoil my neice and nephew and teach them all about the arts.", Rosemary said.

"Uh, Rosemary, Sweetheart? They won't be old enough to appreciate the arts for quite some time yet!", Lee gently told his wife. Rosemary pouted but cheered up when she was allowed to hold her namesake. All four of Jack and Elizabeth's best friends got a turn to hold each baby, Then Elizabeth appeared to be getting tired so The group said goodby and left.

The next day, the children visited the Thorntons after lunch. They all brought the presents they had made,

"These are very nice, you all.", Jack said.

"The babies will love everything you all brought. And they are even more special because you children made them. I love you all so much!", Elizabeth said and reached out her arms.

The kids all ran to her for a hug and said somewhat in unison,

"We love you too, Mrs Thornton."

"We have one more thing for you from all of us together.", Hattie said. Emily and Opal brought in the sign that the Children had worked on together.

"We thought you could put it above the doorway of the babies' room.", Timmy said. Elizabeth's eyes filled as she stroked the sign with her fingers.

"It's beautiful, Children. Thankyou, so much!"

"That is wonderful work!", Jack agreed. The sign was made of ceder wood and said,

God Bless These Babies.

Jack immediately got a hammer and nails and nailed the sign above the babies' doorway. This startled the babies who started screeming. Emily picked up Abby Rose and got her quieted before the parents could do anything. Robert then picked up little Billy and calmed him down.

"You two are so good with them. You are all going to be great cousins to our children. I'm so glad they will have you all in their lives as they grow."

"And we maybe calling you both to baby-sit quite a bit, Robert and Emily. You two have the magic touch.", Jack half joked. After a few moments Robert handed Billy to Cody and Emily handed Abby Rose to Anna. Eventually everyone go to hold the babies. After everyone had gotten a chance to hold both twins, the children said goodby and headed home.

"I have the most wonderful students any teacher could hope for. I love them all so much.", Elizabeth said.

"I know. So do I.", Jack said. Then Elizabeth prepared to feed her babies.

About a week later, Rosemary stopped by to talk to Elizabeth.

"Elizabeth. I'm frantic. I don't know what to do! I haven't even told Lee yet. I don't know how he'll react."

"Rosemary! Calm down. What haven't you told Lee yet? Why are you so stressed?", Elizabeth said. Then she handed Abby Rose to Rosemary to keep her occupied and calm her. Taking Billy with her, she led Rosemary over to the couch.

"Now Tell me. What's the matter."

"I don't even know how to say it. I don't know what to do!", Rosemary rambled. Elizabeth felt exasparated.

"Rosemary! I cant help you if you don't tell me what's going on." Rosemary huffed out a sigh and said,

"Oh, alright. Here it goes. Elizabeth, I'm… I'm… well… p-pregnent!"
