On a beautiful Monday morning Annie woke up but didn't want to get out of
bed but Eric wasn't in bed so Annie just got out to get the twins ready.
She went to the twins room to find they weren't in bed so she went
downstairs to find Eric playing with the twins.
"Hi Honey." Annie says.
"Hey, how did you sleep?"
"Good, I just wish you would have woken me up." Annie says.
"You were just so cute sleeping I didn't want to."
"Are the kids in school?" Annie asked.
"Yep, dropped them all off and came back to feed the twins."
"Are you going to work?" Annie asks.
"Yea, I didn't want to leave my boys all by themselves."
"That's why you should have woken me up, even if I look cute sleeping." Annie says as Eric puts the boys in the crib.
"You're right. I'll see you at lunch."
"Okay, I love you." Annie says.
"I love you too bye." Eric says as he kisses Annie, says goodbye to his twin boys and leaves.
A few hours later Eric goes home for lunch to have a sandwich Annie made while she fed the twins lunch. Eric left for work a half hour later then after school he went to pick up his kids and took them home. The next day Annie took Sam and David for a doctor's appointment while everyone was at school and Eric at work. Few hours after Annie got home, Eric and the kids came home. While Eric was playing in the living room with Sam and David he was told they were doing great while the kids did their homework. Sam is playing with David on the floor with Eric sitting next to them and Annie goes to the kitchen to make dinner.
"Where is Sammy? Where is Sammy? Where is David? Where is David? Here I am, Here I am." Eric sings a song while taking the blanket off of David and Sam, "I hate this game, daddy. I hate this game daddy, okay no more. I'll just let you two crawl on me." Eric said as David and Sam look at him with a disgusted look on their faces as he sings the song.
David and Sam crawled on Eric for a few minutes then they went upstairs to change Sam and David's diaper. After Eric finished changing Sam he put Sam in the crib as well as David. He told Simon if he could watch the twins for a couple of minutes which Simon told Eric he would watch the twins by leaving the sliding doors open. Eric went to his bathroom and came back to the twins' room about five minutes later.
"So what have you been up to?" Eric asks Simon as he holds Sam on his lap while Simon stands in the doorway.
"Nothing just doing homework and getting ready for a project that is due in two weeks."
"Do you know what the project is about?" Eric asked.
"It is in my history class and it's about important people of our time."
"Does it have to be anybody who committed themselves to making the country a better place?" Eric asked.
"Dad, there are a lot of good people who committed themselves, even one of them got himself killed for it."
"True, how about George Washington? Abraham Lincoln, or Rosa Parks?"
"Yeah but I think that Abraham Lincoln made the hardest commitment to keeping the country together in that four year Civil War." Simon says.
"Tell you what, when you get the assignment make sure you understand it, if not ask the teacher and I'll see what I can do to help you. But you will have to do it yourself."
"Okay dad. Thanks."
"Anytime." Eric says as Annie comes up to tell him that dinner is ready.
Annie picks up David as Simon tells everyone else dinner is ready while both Annie and Eric walk downstairs with Sam and David in their arms. During dinner Annie tells Ruthie that she can spend the night at Katie's house which Ruthie was excited as Annie gives David his food.
"Mom, there is a charity ball on Friday and Lucy and I want to go."
"What is the charity ball for?" Annie asks.
"It's to pay for the medical expenses and funeral costs of one of the students whose father was killed when they both got into an accident by a drunk driver a week ago."
"It only cost five dollars per person and if this is a success the school might hold a basketball charity if all the medical expenses aren't enough." Lucy says.
"Good idea. I think the community should come in support as well." Eric says.
"You don't need a date?" Simon asks.
"No, we are just going to dance and most of our friends don't have dates." Mary replies.
"Where is the charity going to be held?" Eric asked.
"At the school gym where there will be teachers and parents."
"You two can go to the dance." Annie says as Eric agrees.
"Thank you mom, dad." Mary says as Lucy thanks them as well.
After dinner Mary and Lucy cleaned the tables as Simon and Eric did the dishes. Annie played with David and Sam in the living room with Ruthie. After the dishes were done the girls and Simon went to their rooms as Eric and Annie play with Sam and David.
The next morning everyone gets up, eats breakfast then heads to school and Eric kisses Annie goodbye to go to work. While the twins are playing in their playpen, the phone rings, Annie sits on the couch and picks it up.
"Hello?"
"Hi Honey." Annie says.
"Hey, how did you sleep?"
"Good, I just wish you would have woken me up." Annie says.
