Ricky POV
Today is John and Valerie first birthday. But it also the day I lost Amy. I am so happy for my children and I thank God for giving them to me, but I miss Amy so much, she my other half and she not here to celebrate this special day. A tear fell down my eyes just thinking of her.
"I love you Amy and you will always be in my heart"
Then I got up and got ready before John and Valerie woke up. Then my mother Nora woke up and also got ready. After we were both ready I got the kids ready with they new outfits while my mother made breakfast. Valerie is wearing a nice pink dress with black shoes and her hair was loose and curly. John is wearing black pants with black shoes and a nice red and white button down shirt. After breakfast we all play a little and then we got in the car and drove to the cemetery to see Amy. My mother stood in the car while we went to see her.
"Hi baby, how you doing, we miss you" and I put some fresh flowers in her grave
"Said hi to mommy guys" and they clap theirs hands and giggle.
"Dadda, Dadda" they said
"No said Mama" and they just laugh
"It ok Amy, I don't want you to cry or feel bad, and they are still too young to remember you. They know who you are, but for some reason they don't want to say your name. Anyway baby I know is a year since you went to heaven to help god. But I miss you so much. And even after everything I am glad you gave me those two beautiful children. Today they turn one and looking back at everything I didn't think we were going to make it. So baby everyone is waiting for us already because we having a birthday party at the park for them and we can't let them down. Everyone was so nice and helping settle everything this morning. I love you and miss you and I hope you watching us from heaven." I said and walk away with my two kids in hand.
When we got to the part everyone was waiting for us. My parents were there with my brother Toby and Zoe. The Juergens, the Bowmans with Jack and Jesse. Dr. Field with Lauren and Madison were also there. Mr. Boykewich arrived with Ben, Mercy, Adrian, Ruben, Cindy and Max. Also Mrs. O'Malley arrived with Sam and they were also a lot of the children from the day care. The theme of the party is Mickey and Minnie Mouse. All the boys had Mickey ears that said happy birthday and all the girls had Minnie ears that also said happy birthday. There was also a big birthday cake in the shape of Mickey and Minnie. And two full piƱata one of each. The balloons, the plates and everything else were about Mickey and Minnie. And last we had little souvenir bags for boys and girls with toys and little stuff that kids likes. The park looked at amazing. It was one of the best children parties anyone had been.
"Hi guys how you doing, happy birthday to John and Valerie" My mother said and gave us a hug.
"Can I get you guys' attentions please" I said
"Sure Ricky what going on" George said
"First I want to thank everyone on behalf of John, Valerie and I for making this day happen. It really nice set up. Second I want to thank everyone for this year in helping us, honestly I didn't think I would have made it. So thank you. Third I know that we kind of feel guilty because today is also the day that my angel when to heaven. But she won't want us to feel sad or cry. She would want us to keep on living and be happy. So today we are celebrating life not death. And last I want to introduced to everyone my biological mother Nora, she back in my life and I am glad I have her" I said and everyone clap and smile. Then we continue talking, eating and playing around with the kids. For a while everyone was in couple again and for a minute I got sad, but then I got happy when I notice George carrying John near the cake and John grab some cake and put it all over George face. I couldn't stop laughing, it was so funny.
"Hey Ricky, how you holding up" Leo said
"I am good, I miss Amy but I am also happy I have them"
"I know you are"
"Leo are you ok, you seem sad and stress out"
"Yeah, I am having this great responsibility and I don't know how I could continue like this"
"Is everything alright, you need any help?" I ask concern. He was going to said something when my mother Nora interrupts us.
"Hey Ricky, I think we should sing happy birthday and cut the cake."
"Oh yeah in a minute"
"Hi I am Leo and you are Nora right" he said smiling
"Hi Leo" Nora said also smiling and they kept staring in each other eyes. After like 2 minutes I had to interrupt
"Ok let find the kids and gather everyone around"
"Sure" they both said simultaneously and I just laugh
After we sang happy birthday to John and Valerie, I help them blow out they candles and I made a wish for them. Then we took pictures with everyone, we cut the cake and everyone sat down and ate. And after the cake we open the present and also took picture with them.
Nora POV
After a long beautiful day people started leaving. We started cleaning up and getting all the present to the car left over food and cake.
"Nora right"
"Yes and you Leo"
"Yes" he said shyly
"So are you married?" I ask
"I was but she passed away"
"I am sorry"
"And I heard you a widow"
"Yes I am, thank god for that" and we both laugh
"Yeah, thank god for that" he said
"Listen I find you really interesting and I would like to know if you would go out with me sometime"
"Are you sure, I just came out of jail and I use to be a drug addicted"
"I am sure, everyone deserved a second chance"
"Thank you and I be happy to go out with you"
"Ok, how about this Friday, I pick you up at Ricky's"
"Friday sound good"
