Still Going Strong Chapter 3: Chloe: Diva Girl

"Emily?" Sarah called.

"Yeah?" Asked the 11-year-old from the family room where she was watching TV.

"I'm going to take a nap. Would you please keep an eye on Chloe?"

"Sure." Emily said, seemingly mesmerized by the screen.

"Thanks." Sarah said, plopping the baby down next to her sister. She laughed as she laid down in bed 5 minutes later. "Pre-teens." She mumbled to herself. Within 5 minutes, she was fast asleep...

Back in the family room, Sean was sitting on the ground to the right of the TV, which his sister was so entranced by, playing with his legos. Chloe let her self off of the sofa and walked over to her brother. After being ignored by him as well, she looked around, and toddled off down the hall, unnoticed.

When the TV show ended, 23 minutes later, Emily stretched and shut off the television. She turned to her right.

"Chlo..." She stopped, seeing that her little sister wasn't next to her.

"Sean? Is the baby with you?" She asked.

"No, the baby's still in mom's stomach." He said with a 'duh' tone to his 6- year-old voice.

"I mean Chloe!" She said, exasperated.

"Oh, nope." He said. "I'm bored. Will you turn on the Game Cube for me?"

"Yeah." Emily walked over and switched it on. She unrolled two controllers, handing one to her brother. Their favorite Mario racing game came onto the screen.

"Shouldn't you go find..."

"Shh, here's the character video!" She said.

"Chloe..." He trailed off, watching the colorful video of all the players driving in their cars. He scooted up next to his sister, and in seconds, they were both gone in the Mario world.

Sarah stretched and rolled over. She looked at the clock. Across the face, in blocky green letters it read: 5:45. She had already slept for two hours! She stumbled out of bed and into her bathroom. She cracked up and gasped in horror at the same time at the sight she saw.

Little Chloe was sitting in the middle of the room, with Sarah's make up basket sitting at her side. Her make up was spread everywhere around her daughter, all open. Chloe was a mess. She had multi-colored makeup spread all over her face, arms, stomach, hair, and legs. Sticking out of her mouth was the front of her long eye liner stick.

"Chloe!" She cried. She ran forward and tossed all her make up into the basket.

"Hi mommy!" Chloe said cheerfully. "Look! Pretty colors!"

"Yes...very pretty colors. You didn't ask mommy if you could play with this.

"I know." She said.

"You need to ask first!"

"OK." Sarah leaned over and picked her daughter up.

"Let's get you cleaned up." She took the baby to the bathtub and put her in. 15 minutes later, she was squeaky clean and in a cozy nightie. Sarah carried the almost three-year-old back out into the family room, where her older brother and sister will still playing Nintendo.

"Emily Marie?" Sarah said. "Pause please." Emily did so and turned around.

"Oh Mom you're up...with...Chloe!" She stammered.

"I just found your baby sister, who you were supposed to be watching, in my bathroom covered in my make up." She said. Emily stifled a laugh. She got up and took the baby.

"Hey, diva girl, you're too young for make up!" She told her sister. Sarah looked at her daughter, and couldn't help but smile.

"I have to be able to trust you with her. Soon, I'm going to be busy with another baby, and I need to be able to rely on you. This can't happen again."

"OK." Emily said.

"Ready for dinner?" Sarah asked.

"Sure. Sean?" She called. The boy turned around looked at his mother.

"Dinner time." She told her son.

"OK." He said. "Hold on, let us finish this race. Common Emily!" Emily went over, still holding Chloe. She sat the little girl down next to her who watched in awe while her older siblings battled it out on the TV screen. By the time they finished, dinner, Raviolis, was half was finished. Emily set the table, at her mother's request, and put Chloe in her high chair. Sean took the liberty of putting her bib on her. After 10 minutes, dinner was ready and Sarah put the food on her childrens' plates. She heated a left over piece of pizza for herself and sat down. When they were about halfway done, Matt walked in the door.

"Hey guys!" He said happily.

"It's Daddy! It's Daddy!" Called Chloe excitedly.

"We know!" Said Sean. Matt kissed each of his kids on top of the head, and his wife on the cheek.

"Ohh pizza." He said, eyeing Sarah's plate "Is there any more in the fridge?"

"Yep, there are three more pieces. Microwave them for 45 seconds each.

"OK thanks. Can I get you another?" He asked.

"That sounds great. I think the baby is still hungry." She said with a sly smile. Matt laughed.

"Coming right up!" He cooked two pieces for himself, and one more for his wife." He gave her the piece, and sat down in the chair next to her with his own. They finished dinner, and Emily and Sean went to get ready for bed while Sarah and Matt chatted. After they were ready, Sarah went to tuck them in while Matt played with Chloe. She tucked them in and walked down the hall.

"Good night!" Shouted Sean from his room.

"Good night!" She said. She took Chloe from Matt when she got back to the kitchen, and took her to her room. She layed her down in her "big girl bed", kissed her goodnight, and started out of the room.

"Good night mommy!" She called.

"Good night, Chloe!"

"I love you!"

"I love you too." Sarah said with a laugh.

"I lloovvee yyoouu!" Chloe called out, stalling her sleep.

"I love you, now go to sleep!" Sarah said with a laugh, and she went back into the kitchen to begin cleaning up.
