10 Years ago:

It was typical morning in the Shepherd household Mom and Dad were preparing to get the twins ready for the day while I was getting ready for a nice day out with Roger. I'm scared about moving out of the house but it's time i'm married now and well Lexie is sick of Amelia getting into her business so might move into my old room. I'm also scared about being a mother I don't think I'm ready either. Roger is thrilled to be a dad because his older brother who I didn't know when I married him was my already brother in law. I had no idea that Roger was Fredward's brother. If I had known that I probably would have kept Shepherd for the children that I am carrying. Carrying twins is tiresome I don't know why Mom did so many times. I am only 20 nearly 21 and I don't think I will ever become pregnant again because this is horrible. I'd like a big family but I don't want to carry anymore after this.

"El Honey do you think our baby boy will like this?" Roger asked. "AWW that's so adorable I think Luke will love that, but don't you think we ought to think of another name for him considering my little brother's name is Luke?" I asked. "Well I guess we could name hiim Lucas so we don't get confused, or by his middle name." Roger said. "No we will call him Luke Davidson Williams when we are talking about baby Luke with the family." I said. "Wait I thought we were giving the babies your maiden name?" Roger asked. "Well I Guess it would be better than being named Luke Mark Shepherd Davidson Williams, and Leia Katelyn Shepherd Davidson Williams I think that it sounds a little long for a little kid to remember." I said. "Wait I thought our daughters name is going to be Gail after my sister." Roger asked. "Well we already agreed on Leia maybe if we have another daughter we could name her that." I said.

I wasn't ready to admit that I was pregnant with Triplets instead of twins which will surprise Roger when I deliver the babies, actually nobody but my doctor and myself know. I know they will be disappointed that I kept it a secret for so long though. Three children at once is a little bit of a stretch but I love these little ones.

"Hey El why do we have another crib in Leia's room?" Roger asked. "Okay Roger I might as well tell you but you can't tell anyone else but were having triplets two girls and a boy." I told Roger. "Wow El that's amazing so what are we going to call the other daughter?" Roger asked. "Well I was thinking Gail Maria, Gail after yours sister, and Maria after your late mother." I said. "Wow honey that is a wonderful way to honor my family but we were already honoring my family by having Leia have my other sisters name. Katelyn I haven't seen in years actually since mom died, actually all our children are honoring my dysfunctional family." Roger said.

We were excited to be parents to these amazing little children who haven't even been born yet. By the time Christmas time was nearing I was just ready to be done because Luke, Leia, and Gail were ready for me to spoil and love them. I can't wait to dress them up, and be a family with Roger who I know is probably looking forward to me being happy again and not cranky. Zola wasn't this cranky with Carrie, and Caroline, and I Anna wasn't this cranky with Mikey although she is with the one that she is carrying. I guess she just is sick of Bailey being gone to New York, and around the United States traveling for work with Mikey worrying that she may have the baby while both of them are gone. On Christmas I got the best present ever I got to meet my little angels who I love dearly.

10 Years Later:

"MOM Luke stole Stewie's teddy bear." Leia said. "LEIA KATELYN why are you tateling on your brother." I asked. "Mom Sally just threw up." Gail said. "Oh dear not again she has been sick for several days with the stomach bug." I said. "I got Sally dear here's Stewie." Roger said. "Mom can I have another little brother?" asked Luke. "Luke Stewie is 9 months old and mommy is tired of having babies she doesn't want to have another baby." I said. "Hey sis what's up." Tyler said walking into the house. "Tyler how did you get in here?" I asked. "Roger let me in anyways can I stay here for awhile Elizabeth is driving me crazy I can't wait for that evil Demon of hers to be born so she can be nice again." Tyler said. "Oh Tyler Elizabeth is just extremely uncomfortable the ninth month is awful as you have to wait for the baby, I don't think you remember what I was like 10 years ago when I was pregnant with Luke, Leia, and Gail and don't forget I was pregnant with triplets Elizabeth only has one so I think you should be grateful for your twin sister." I said

Honestly my brother still doesn't get that Elizabeth could have the baby any day now. Tomorrow is Christmas and Roger and I aren't ready for our three kids turning 10 year old already. Today might be my birthday but Roger and I don't have time to celebrate as we have birthday presents to wrap for the triplets, and Christmas presents for all the children. Bad enough we haven't even gotten our Christmas tree yet and it's christmas eve. As my dad came over he asked where our christmas tree was.

"Grandpa" Luke, Leia, and Gail said loudly. "Hi guys he where is mommy?" my father asked. "Hi Dad what's up?" I said holding my Son in the infant holder. "Where's your Christmas Tree because Mom wants to have a birthday, and Christmas thing tomorrow for Lexie, You, Maddie, Luke, Leia, Gail, and Violet." Dad said. "Dad Violet isn't even born yet so why consider Violet." I asked. "Well a father could hope you had the triplets on Christmas so maybe she will come." my dad said. "Dad how's Carrie doing?" I asked. "She's doing good she decided to give the baby to Olivia who has tried so hard to become a mom." my dad said. "Grandpa where is Grandma?" asked Gail. "Oh sweetie she is with Uncle Bailey, and Uncle Luke and your cousins out shopping for Christmas Presents to go see Santa Claus." my dad said. "Oh please like Santa exists if he did we would have had another baby brother, and a dog for Christmas." Luke said. "Really Luke we're going through this again?" I said

My son just doesn't get that the magic isn't about things like babies, or puppies. I miss the magic I had with the triplets when they were little now I only have it with Sally as Stewie is too little to understand. After I had finished cooking dinner I called Roger only to find out that Sally had been admitted into the hospital. I left my dad in charge of the kids while I went to my sick daughter's side. I didn't know what to expect as to what was going on. As I got to the hospital I met with Roger and asked him what is going on with our 3 year old daughter.

"Roger what is wrong with Sally?" I asked. "Dr. Shepherd can I talk to you." asked the Peds doctor on call. "Sure what's wrong with my daughter?" I asked. "It looks as if she has Kidney stones, the pain causes young children to vomit which can explain her vomiting, however we have given her some meds and you can take her home in a couple of days." said the doctor. "Wait tomorrow is Christmas my daughter is going to spend another Christmas in this hospital." I said. "Another Christmas? Is she regularly sick and in the hospital on Christmas?" asked the doctor. "Well last year her father had surgery, and I was sick in the hospital myself so we had her in Childcare with her older siblings on Christmas." I said. "I'm going to let her go home then because your a doctor, and her father is a nurse so she will have her meds." the doctor said.

It was 9:30 when we came home with Sally. My dad was asleep on the couch with Stewie in his arms. Roger and I decided to finish wrapping up everything that we had. But what I didn't notice when my dad was on the couch was that there was a Christmas tree. Roger and I put the presents under the tree then I forgot to go to a friend of mines for a present that we had gotten for the kids. As morning came what woke me up was the door knocking. It was my mom looking for my dad because he never came home.
"Ellis did you see your father because he never came home last night." My mom said. "He's on my couch he fell asleep with Stewie last night of course I just put Stewie in the playpen near him." I said. "Well are you ready to celebrate Christmas Zola, Bailey, Luke, Hannah, Amelia, Lexie, and the Twins will be over in 20 minutes." my mom said. "Wait we're having Christmas Here and not at our house." I asked. "Well your father and I decided considering that you and Roger just got this big house it would have plenty of room for our big family." My mom said.

She was right but it would have been nice if someone had told me several of days ago. As the kids woke up they started to open their presents. One present however was in our room waiting for the perfect moment to bring it out. Just as we were getting ready for the major present Olivia came in with Toby with a kitten for the kids. I didn't know what to do now with the present that we got the kids, and the kitten I had no idea about what we were going to do.

"So Luke, Leia, Gail, and Sally we got you this kitten because were going to have a baby soon." Olivia said. "Yay a kitten lets call it mittens." Leia and Gail said. "Ugh it's not a puppy I don't want it." Luke said. "LUKE MARK SHEPHERD why are you being so rude towards Cousin Olivia." Roger told our son. "Sorry thank you cousin Olivia." Luke said before leaving as I held a baby American Eskimo Puppy. "Luke don't you want this present too." I said. "YES it's a puppy lets call it Snowy." Luke said. "Wait Luke Uncle Fred has another thing for you." Zola said. "It's a Golden Retriever puppy." Caroline said. "Wait Zola your giving us a puppy two?" I asked. "Yes look Elliot, Albert and Caroline are never home to care for the puppy and well with Carrie giving the baby to Olivia Fred and I don't see much sense and keeping the puppy alone all the time that and our kids are teens you still have young children who will play with it." Zola kids had a great Christmas and I enjoyed the time I had with my children and family even though my daughter was sick.

A/N: Elizabeth and Carrie will have their babies soon but first the two must deal with what they are going to do with their children. Carrie is allowing Olivia to adopt her baby, While Elizabeth must figure out what she wants to do so she can go to College to be a teacher.
