Chapter 12: Is It Good News or Bad News?
Joe is 3 years old now and goes to nursery school during the day while I make my rounds at the hospital.
I haven't been feeling like myself since the week of his 3rd birthday. I haven't told Steve yet because I want to know what's wrong, so that he doesn't have to go through unnecessary worry.
After receiving a checkup from Lexi, I return home to await the test results. After 2 weeks of waiting, Lexi called said that she wanted me and Steve to come to her office together when she tells me what the results are. I told we would be there in a few minutes. By this time I told Steve that I went to see Lexi and had some tests run. When I told him he was a little upset that I didn't tell him that I sick sooner.
20 minutes later Steve and I are in her office waiting for her to come in tell us what's wrong with me. Little did we know that the tests revealed something that would change our lives forever.
Lexi walked in with my file in her hand. She looked at me and Steve.
"Kayla, Steve… the tests show that Kayla is not sick…in fact Kayla, you are pregnant."
We both were just completely shocked.
"I thought that because of the conditions of Joe's birth, I couldn't have any more children. You told me that yourself."
"Well Kay, it seems that I was wrong."
It has been almost a year since we found out about the baby. 4 months ago Steve and I welcomed our 3rd little angel. We had another little girl. We named her Colleen Rose.
Joe loves being a big brother. Stephanie can't wait 'til she is big enough to be able to do those girly sister things that sisters bond.
I just think God every day that Stefano is gone and unable to take Steve or any of our children or granddaughter away from me. Steve is so over joyed that he is here to watch and help his son and new baby girl grow up, especially since because of Stefano he was unable to there for Steph.
I am so happy that he Steve is no longer under Stefano's control and can't ever be again. I don't know what I would if I lost him again. We are both thrilled that our children and granddaughter get to live a world without Stefano's evil.
I love Steve now even more than I did the day I married him and the day he finally came back to me memory and all. I think that all the horrible things that Stefano did to us only made our love stronger. I think the same rings true for Abe and Lexi, John and Marlena, Bo and Hope, and Sami and Rafe.
