"Good morning, Grace." Faith said as she took a sip of her coffee.
"Good morning." Grace said sarcastically.
Faith laughed. "Is this a little too early for you?"
"Not really, I got a lot of sleep. It's just Eli and I are in a fight." Grace said sadly.
"A fight? Aren't you supposed to be going to prom together tonight?" Faith asked confused.
"Yeah we still are and it's because he well he ripped my dress."
Faith laughed. "You're joking right?"
"No, strangely enough I'm not." Grace said laughing.
"It was an accident, right?" She asked hoping
"Yeah." Grace said hesitantly.
"Grace it either was or wasn't. Which one was it?"
"It was." Grace finally admitted.
"It sounds like that took a lot out of you."
"Well it did."
"You've been trying to blame him?"
"Yeah, how'd you guess?"
"I know you."
"Well tonight should be interesting." Grace said smiling.
"That I don't deny. Now I want you to tell me every last detail."
"Good morning, Mr. Manning." The doctor said as Jake came in.
"Ok let's make this quick. I have a many things to do." Jake said seriously.
"Many things? Would you care to elaborate on that?"
"Yes I would care to elaborate."
"Ok well tell me about tonight. It's prom right?"
"How did you know that?"
"You told me; last meeting remember? And how is that whole proposing plan coming?"
"No, I don't remember telling you about this at all. You sure I was there?" Jake asked confused.
"Yeah I taped it if you want to hear it."
"No, I guess I'll have to take your word on that."
"So have you been able to stay clam? Keep your anger controlled?"
"Had no problem, things have been really nice."
"Well that's good to hear; anything else?"
"Not that I can think of but after tonight; I'll have a lot to talk about." Jake said.
"Hey Jessie." Eli said as his little sister came into the kitchen.
"You're smiling can you tell me why?" Jessie asked as she took the seat next to him.
"Actually it's a surprise."
"But I'm your sister." Jessie said.
"I know that but it's still a surprise."
"If you can't tell your little sister, your own fresh and blood, then who can you tell?" Jessie asked being dramatic.
"My sister the drama queen." Eli said laughing.
"I am not a drama queen." Jessie said defensively.
"Yeah right, and the Oscar goes to Jessie Sammler." Eli said laughing.
"Well I'd deserve it of course." Jessie said playing along.
"My sister a little ego I see." Eli said.
"Compared to yours mine is nothing." Jessie said smiling.
"Ok some one wants to be tickled to death I see." He said smiling.
"No Eli please. You will ruin my hair." She said getting up.
"You just woke up. Your hair is all ready ruined." Eli said going after her.
"Oh Eli look Grace just got home." Jessie said pointing towards the door.
Eli looked and Jessie ran. "Oh that's not funny." Eli said as he chased after her.
"So I hear you don't like Emily." Henry said as he came into the kitchen.
"Who told you?"
"Emily I just passed her and she said and I quote "Mrs. Sammler hates me." That was my first clue. Now why would she think that?"
"Well I might have corrected her a little."
"A little! From what Eli told me, I heard you were screaming at her."
"So I lost my patience a little. I'm sorry, ok?"
"Well tell Emily that because she's scared to come back."
"I will but do you think you can stay here tonight because Jessie, Katie, Eli and Grace are coming over before the dance and I'd like to get some pictures. But…"
"You can't do it by yourself?"
"Exactly so will you help me?"
"Of course, this is a big deal for you isn't it?"
"Yeah you know I never would guess that Eli would ever go to something like this and Jessie I thought I'd never see her this happy."
"Grace, how was you meeting?" Barbara asked as she came out her room.
"It was interesting. B, have you seen my mom? I need to know is she finished my dress."
"Her note said she hung it on the door and she wanted to tell you that your father, Tiffany and the baby are coming over before you leave for Karen's."
"Where exactly is my mom and Rick any way?"
"I don't really know. They left a note on the table say something about the dress, Jake and they'd be back in time."
"Ok well I'm going to go get ready and thanks for coming B." Grace said as she stated to head to her room.
"So how long exactly are we staying here?" Rick asked Lily as he took another sip of his coffee.
"We'll give them three hours tops." Lily said.
"And what are we going to do for three hours?" Rick asked.
"We have two children on the way and a house that's no prepared for it. Your best friend and my sister are getting married, and we have gotten them anything. Not to mention the fact that they are also going to have a baby…." Lily said as she started to ramble.
"What exactly is it that I could do to get you to stop rambling?" Rick asked pleading.
"You could go shopping with me." She said smiling.
"Is that the only thing I can do to get you to stop rambling?" Rick asked again pleading.
"Well that's the only thing that you can do in public any way." She said smiling.
"Ok let's go." He said smiling as they left.
"So we're going to actually get to see what our baby looks like?" Sam asked Judy as they waited for the doctor.
"Well actually I've already seen the baby but this is for you to see what she looks like." Judy said.
"So I finally get to see our daughter looks like." Sam said smiling.
"I never thought you'd be this happy about having a child." Judy said.
"Well I think it just took me a little while but knowing that I'm having a little girl and naming her kind of helps."
"Yeah it does, doesn't it?" Judy said smiling.
The doctor came in. "Ok so Ms. Brooks, Mr. Blue are your ready to see your daughter?"
"Taylor." Judy said.
"Excuse me?" The doctor asked confused.
"We named the baby Taylor." Sam said.
"Ok, any way…" The doctor said as she turned on the monitor. "Ok that's your daughter. That's her little foot…."
"That's our little girl." Sam said smiling.
