Epilogue:
Right now we were all gathered around the Cullen's backyard in celebration of Zachary's birthday. He was turning 5. I can't believe that Kaila is right behind him. Kaila was blessed with her father's green eyes and my brown hair. Edward is an excellent father to her. Alice got pregnant a couple months after I had Kaila and her baby is a girl. Thank goodness. Her name is Sarah Lynn Hale.
"MOMMY!" Kaila whinned while puling my sweater. It was fall now because it's Zach's birthday which is October 11th and Kaila happened to be born on New Year's Eve which was December 31st. I got down to eye level with her.
"Yes?" I asked. No words could describe how much I loved her.
"Why does Uncle Emmett get to taste the cake and I don't?" she said with her eyes tearing up. I laughed.
"Because he will get in trouble if Grandma finds out. Do you want that?" I asked and she stopped looking sad and put an evil grin on.
"Grandma!" she said while she skipped over to Esme and I stood up. It was so funny how Emmett could still get in trouble for things when he is this old.
"Hi there beautiful," Edward said while wrapping his arms aroun dme from the back. I pushed back on him and lay my head on his shoulder.
"I am so not beautiful with the condition I am in," I said. Did I meantion I was pregnant again? 5 months.
"I think otherwise," he said. "Thank you," I said and leaned up to kiss his cheek. We were having a baby boy this time and we're going to name it Jared Ryan Cullen.
Kaila came screaming over to Edward looking completely terrified. "Daddy!!!!"
He let go of me for a second, picked her up and then wrapped his free arm around my waist so Kaila was in the middle of us. "What's wrong, pumpkin?" he asked
"Auntie Alice is trying to play dress up!" she said and Edward and I cracked up.
"You are just like your mother, aren't you?" Edward said and I nodded.
The rest of the party was fun and we were driving back to the new house we bought a couple months ago. It was goregous. Two stories with 5 rooms and 31/2 bathrooms. Perfect for us.
"Mommy, why is your tummy growing?" Kaila asked curiously. I looked back at her and smiled.
"Because Mommy is going to have another baby. You are going to have a little brother to teach right from wrong to. Do you think you can handle that?" I told Kaila.
"Yes, I can. What will his name be?"
"Jared Ryan Cullen is his full name, but he will go by Jared. Just like Kaila Renee Cullen is your full name, but you only go by Kaila."
"How long until I get to meet Jared?" she asked. I laughed.
"Not for a while, sweetie," she seemed content with my answer and stared out the window.

When Jared was born I decided that I was done with having kids. 2 was enough. Edward agreed and we happily moved on with our lives together. We were still madly in love and never lost connection even after we had our kids. I love my kids very muchand would do anything for them and defend them wth my life. I am sure Edward feels the same way. We were your average family: happily married, 2 kids, a house and a yard. The only difference was that we will never grow old.
