Three Months Later
"A baby?" Robbie stares stunned at Cecilia who is dancing nervously back and forth on both of her feet.
Cecilia nods, "I saw the doctor today, she says I'm about twelve weeks along."
"A baby?" Robbie asks again a grin spreading across his face.
Cecilia nods, "she says that by Thanksgiving we'll have a baby to be thankful for."
Robbie pulls Cecilia to him, hugging her tightly and lifting her gently off her feet as he kisses her. "I can't believe we are going to have a baby. I'm going to be a Daddy."
"And I'll be a..." The doorbell interrupts Cecilia's statement.
"Ignore it, we can pretend we aren't home and they'll go away and we can celebrate." Robbie states.
Cecilia laughs and shakes her head, "I can't do that. I'll get it, you can stay here."
Robbie shakes his head, "I'll come too."
Cecilia laughs again and leads the way to the doorway, pulling it opens reveals Mary, immediately Cecilia's good mood drops, "Mary, what's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong." Mary responds.
"Ruthie and the twins are all right?" Robbie asks.
Mary nods, "actually I have a couple gifts for you, courteous of the Colonel and Ruth all the way from Buffalo."
"What'd you bring all the way from Buffalo?" Cecilia asks, "couldn't they have mailed it?"
Mary shakes her head and taking a step back Ruthie, Sam and David step over from where they had been hiding behind the pillar on the front porch, "surprise!" The twins chorus.
Robbie and Cecilia exchange concerned looks, "what's going on?"
"They will explain it all to you, but I have a plane to catch." Mary states before hurrying over back down the walkway and into the idling car.
"Ruthie what's going on?" Robbie asks as he and Cecilia watch the car pull down the street, stunned.
"Can we come in and explain?" Ruthie asks.
Cecilia nods, "yes, come in."
"So what's going on?" Robbie asks once everyone is settled on the couch.
"We're moving back to Glenn Oak." David declares.
"What? How?" Cecilia fumbles for more than those two words but finds nothing.
"Let me explain," Ruthie quietly orders her brothers to be quiet and then begins, "Grandma Ruth and the Colonel talked to my tutor, I told him that I want to be home more than anything. They finally listened to him, they sat us all down and asked us if we really and truly would never be happy in Buffalo and I told them the truth, that we would adjust but we wouldn't be happy like we would be in Glenn Oak. And they talked it over and said that if you will have us back then we can move back to Glenn Oak. They said that even though they don't want to give up the only thing their son left behind they would rather do that then see us unhappy."
"Can we move back?" Sam asks.
"Of course you can!" Cecilia exclaims, "we'll be family again, like before, only more so."
"What do you mean?" Ruthie asks.
Robbie and Cecilia exchange glances and Robbie finally states, "Cecilia's pregnant, we're going to have a baby."
Rounds of congratulations go around and hugs are shared, Robbie looks around the condo and finally states, "I think we are going to need a bigger apartment."
