EASTER BUNNIES

Abby was splashing around in the tub when Carter walked into the bedroom, which was connected to their bathroom in an elegant suite. As Carter popped into the adjoining bathroom to say hi, Abby teased sexily, "Want to join me, John?"

"I'd love to, but the tub is a bit crowded for three, don't you think?" he grinned cheekily.

"Are you saying I'm fat?" Abby pretended to be offended and splashed a little bit of water onto her husband.

"No, of course not. You look as gorgeous as always. But I'm just really tired and I think I'll take a nap before heading down for dinner. I'll take a shower later."

Abby immediately became concerned. "I hope you don't tire yourself out too much, John."

"I should be saying that to you."

Carter left his wife and went back towards the bed. He noticed that Abby and strewn her clothes ont he floor and immediately playfully complained, "Why do I have to pick up after you?"

Abby just laughed.

Carter didn't really mind. He picked up the scattered clothes and laid them onto the plushy armchair at the far side of their bedroom. As he picked up her scrub bottoms, he noticed a few spots of dried blood. At was he was concerned and approached Abby to talk about this.

"Are you all right?" he asked anxiously.

"I'm fine, why do you ask?"

He handed her the evidence and said, "You're bleeding! Why didn't you tell me? We should go to the hospital and have someone check this out in case there's anything wrong ----"

His pulse rate increased and he looked very nervous. He felt as if every hair on his head was about to stand up on their ends.

Abby giggled, but she was secretly touched that her husband loved her so much. "You're so silly, John. It's just spotting. It's very normal, usually happens in the first few months of pregnancy. I used to be an OB nurse, remember? Don't worry, I can take care of myself and our baby."

John's expression softened. He was obviously relieved. "I'm so glad. But Abby ... if anything else happens, anything at all, good or bad, you have to tell me, ok? I'm your husband."

"I promise," Abby said, moved by his words. "I'll keep you informed about everything from now on. Even the stuff you don't want to know!"

Carter leaned over to kiss her, but Abby simply grabbed the showerhead and turned it full-force on him.

The next day was the beginning of the Easter holiday. Abby and Carter sat the their enormous yard and admired the beautiful world. The sky was blue and the grass was a luminous green. Birds were chirping and the scent of flowers was heavenly. Abby sat on the bench with her husband's arm wrapped around her shoulders. Suddenly, she touched her stomach and said, "John, you know what?"

"What?"

"Next year, right now, our baby would be here. We could have an easter egg hunt for him or her."

"That sounds like a great idea. We could invite Ella and Reese over for it too."

"It'd be so much fun. All the kids running around."

"Maybe we can get Frank to pretend to be the Easter bunny."

Abby laughed at the image. "He'd just scare our poor baby into tears."

She turned around to look at the roses for a minute when Carter put a blindfold on her. Surprised, she asked, "John, what are you doing?"

"It's a surprise. You'll see; come with me."

Carter carefully led her across the yard and back into the house. He paid special attention so that Abby wouldn't fall or injure herself. Finally, he reached the surprise gift he had gottne for Abby and took off the blindfold.

Abby was pleasantly surprised by the sight of too adorable, fluffy bunny rabbits in a metal cage.

"What is this?" she asked happily.

"It's an Easter present."

"Oh, John. They are so cute. Thanks so much!" She gave him a long and loving kiss.

"They are a lovely pair, aren't they?" Carter said, petting one of them. "Just like us."

Abby nodded and smiled. "Just like us."
