Thank you as always for the reviews. Hmmm...I think there are going to be some surprises coming up soon! What do you think they will be?

The children were 9 months old now. They were growing up so fast and Jack and Rose couldn't believe it. Both children were doing very well for their age. They both had started taking steps and knew the words Mommy and Daddy.

Rose would stay home with them during the day while Jack was at the pier, and after he came home she would sometimes go to the theater. She was doing very well with her acting. She was just waiting for that big break in her career one day. She didn't want it now of course…she was enjoying being there for the girls. She felt it was more important for her to be a mother than to be an important actress. She would get to it one day.

She was teaching the children to do artwork. They were naturals of course, a trait they inherited from their father.

"Oh Josephine, Cora…those are absolutely wonderful! I'm so proud of you!"

They both looked up from their artwork to smile at their mother. They were very happy children. Rose also brought them to the theater so they could play with the other children who came there with their parents.

It was nearing evening time and Rose started to get dinner ready for her family. She was just about done with cooking when Jack walked in the door.

"Daddy!"

Both girls ran as fast as they could to their father.

"Hello my little ones! How was your day?"

They ran back over to show their daddy their artwork.

"Oh my! Aren't these wonderful! And I know art work and those are amazing!"

The children were beaming with happiness.

As Jack hugged and played with the children, Rose got the table ready for them. Once it was ready, she went over to Jack and kissed him hello.

"How was your day sweetheart?"

"Oh same ol', same ol'."

Rose was happy that Jack was doing what he loved, but she knew that he wanted more. He really wanted to have an art museum for himself. He knew that there were plenty of artists out there who didn't have the means to be in an art museum and wanted to help.

"Well…dinner is ready for everyone so if you're ready we can eat now."

They all sat down and enjoyed their meal while they talked about their day.
