I was trying to teach the humongous football player Julius how to play
'Mrs. Mary Mack' someone really needed to get pictures of this. Sheryl
had already successfully taught Gerry and was now trying to teach it to
Louie.
"I give up I'm going to end up breaking something." Said Julius putting his hands up in the air as if he was surrendering to someone. I went to go start trying to teach Rev when we saw Uncle Bill come out of the hose with a smile on his face "Who wants to got to a cook out at the Boone's?" he called all the boys got up and ran towards him stirring around Sheryl and me. I kept a close eye on all of them did they really mean what they said about not caring why I was here that I was still just as good a person? "Maurey come on me and you are riding with Coach." Yelled Sheryl running up beside me and grabbing my hand I let her drag me to the station wagon and got in the back seat with Sheryl right beside me.
"See Sheryl now you and Niki have someone who can help you accessorize you dolls and paint your nails." Said Boone sarcastically getting 'you must be kidding' looks shot at him from Sheryl and me; while Niki on the other hand was as happy as could be about having another girl to play with. "I'm Herman Boone I believe we talked on the phone." He said offering his hand. "Hey I'm Maurey Forman it's nice to meet you sir." He nodded in agreement and then looked at Uncle Bill. "Bill why don't you come help me get the grill started before these boys eat through my house?" Uncle Bill just laughed and walked away with him leaving me alone with two 9 year olds.
"Niki why don't you go get your dolls and the three of you can play down here on the porch." Suggested Mrs. Boone. Niki nodded and ran in the house and Mrs. Boone walked down off the porch to where Uncle Bill and Boone where standing carrying another little girl along with her the whole way. I felt Sheryl let loose the grip she had on my arm and kick the ground beside me "Dolls that's all she ever plays with is dolls ...grrrr!" she said meanly in a low voice to where nobody could hear her other then the two of us.
I looked over at Sheryl and thought about what my baby would look like when he or she got that age. Would they be a troublemaker or tomboy or a so-called normal girl like Niki. I shouldn't be thinking like this I'm only two months pregnant something could still happen and I could loose the baby...but I don't want that to happen I want this baby even if in some peoples eyes I'm still a baby myself.
"Maurey, are you ok?" asked Niki who was now sitting on the porch with a box of dolls on one side and Sheryl on the other side, "Oh yeah I'm fine, what did you ask me?" I answered walking over to her and sitting down next to Sheryl on the porch. "Which doll do you want?" she asked holding up two Barbie dolls one with brown hair like mine and one with Blonde like Sheryl' "That one," I said taking the doll from her
