"Thank goodness he is out of here," Jo sighed as the Winnebago drove out of sight. "He was making me crazy."

Tootie laughed. "He's just worried about you," she smiled. "I think it's sweet."

Natalie added, "Yeah, he is being very sweet. Are you two maybe…getting along better?"

Jo laughed. "Okay you busy bodies. Rick and I are talking about getting back together. Nothing has been decided yet, but yes Nat, you could say we're getting along a lot better."

"I think that is wonderful," Mrs. Garrett added. "You have a lovely family Jo, and those kids need their father and you need him too."

Jo nodded. "I know Mrs. G," she sighed. She turned to Blair. "Do you mind if I lay down on your couch?" she asked. "My back is killing me and I just can't sit like this anymore."

Blair looked worried. "Sure Jo," she said, "But are you sure you're alright? Do you need anything?"

Jo shook her head. "I'm fine." Jo laughed. "I may need some help getting out of this chair and onto the couch though." Natalie helped her up and helped Jo lower herself to the couch. "Thanks Nat,' Jo said. She placed her hands on her stomach and sighed. "Have you ever seen anything so huge?" she asked annoyed. Everyone laughed.

"Come on," Blair said. "Stop feeling sorry for yourself."

"That's right," Natalie said. "This is almost over for you. Poor Blair still has all of this to look forward too."

Blair looked frustrated at Natalie as Jo began to laugh hysterically. "Shut up," Blair said.

Jo stopped laughing. "Sorry," she said still smiling. Then she began to giggle again. Natalie and Tootie were laughing too.

"I'm glad you think this is so funny," Blair said. Then she began to laugh a little. "Okay, so I'll probably be as big as a house," she said. "It will be worth it."

Mrs. Garrett smiled. "Of course it will sweetie."

Suddenly Jo stopped laughing. She closed her eyes tightly and her face scrunched up. She was obviously in pain. Natalie grabbed her hand and Jo squeezed it. Finally she released Natalie's hand and took a deep breath.

"Are you okay honey?" Mrs. Garrett asked.

Jo nodded her head. "That was the first contraction I have had in a while, but it was a lot stronger than the others." She was rubbing her stomach with her hand. "I think we better time the contractions. I feel like we may need to head for the hospital pretty soon."
