Katelyn: Anything.
Jack: Please get me a bottle water.
She goes to get him a bottle water.
Jack: Praying. Help us Father to get through please.
Katelyn: Here you go dad.

He drains almost the whole bottle.
Katelyn: Do you want anymore?
Jack: No baby. Come sit by me.
She sits down next to him.
Katelyn: Are you OK daddy?
Jack: This just came has a shock sweetie. Out of all the things I thought you could be so upset over I never in a million years would have guessed it would be this.
Katelyn: But you're OK right? Do you want me to get mom?
Jack: In a second. Kate please keep this under wraps and tell Ashley to keep it under wraps until later this afternoon. To give your mom and me time explain everything to all of you.
Katelyn: OK Did you guys ever look for him?
Jack: Yes but it was a closed case.
Katelyn: Yesterday the reason we came home so late was because, we looked him up online.
Jack: One of the reasons we didn't want to tell you guys is because we know you'd want to find him. We tried and failed. We didn't want you guys to go through the same thing.
Katelyn: Dad, will you promise me something?
Jack: OK
Katelyn: That you will conitue to ask God to help us find him or him to find us?
Jack: I promise. Can you get your mom for me please?
Katelyn: Yes sir.
She goes to get Sue.
Sue comes back.
Sue: Hi.
Jack: Hi.
Sue: Are you OK?
Jack: She knows and so does Ashley.
Sue: Knows what?
Jack: Our big secret. She found this in a box in the attic marked pictures. It why she's been in such a bad mood lately.
He shows her the letter.
Sue: Oh no! I am so stupid.
Jack: What are you talking about?
Sue: Do you remember when Erin did the family tree project for school last year?
Jack: Yes.
Sue: I hide the letter in the attic so she won't run across it and than I forget about it!
Jack: Honey don't be so hard on yourself. Every one makes mistakes.
Sue: I know but this is a big mistake and it hurts the kids!
Jack: What are we going to do?
Sue: We have to tell them.
Jack: I agree but the kids are going to hate us for sure.
Sue: No, we all are going to do what we do best which is get through this together all of us.
Jack: I know it's time we told them but we are about to end up with five very angry teens.
Sue: We're going to get through this Jack. Don't forget we have God and each other on our side. The Devil just wants to tear this family apart so our baby has a messed up family but God wants us all to grow stronger has a family with a older brother if we can find him to witness something he's never been able to witness before a family's love and a birth of his youngest sibling. We will get through this Jack.
Jack: What are you trying to say? Are you pregnant?
Sue: Yes I am!
Jack: Are you serious? This is great!
Sue: We always said we wanted a big family and God's blessed us with five healthy kids, our son I have no doubt God is going to help us fine and another bundle of joy.
Jack: That's what Kate is believing is that God can help us. I promised her we'd be praying about it. Another little one. This is incredible.
