Having a little girl was very different than having a boy, Bosco thought. She had different parts, but those parts squirted at him as well. Sofia was heaven on earth though. Bosco's heart thumped in his chest every single time he looked at her.
"Hey Princess." Bosco cradled Sofia in his arms. She cooed softly blowing spit bubbles. He carefully wiped her mouth as he walked out of her bedroom.
"Can I hold Sofi?" Vincent asked. Bosco looked at him.
"Let's go down to the living room so you can sit on the couch." He said. Vincent nodded and ran downstairs. He was so happy to be a big brother.
"This is so cool." Vincent said getting on the couch. Bosco sat next to him.
"All right. You need to be careful. Support her head." He said placing Sofia into Vincent's arms.
"Hi, Sofia." Vincent grinned as he looked down at his sister. "She's so tiny." Bosco chuckled softly.
"You were that small a long time ago." He said.
"Really?" Vincent asked. Bosco nodded.
"Yes." He said. Faith stood in the doorway watching them.
"It's a hallmark moment." She said.
"Mommy, look I'm holding Sofia." Vincent said.
"I see." Faith walked over to the couch, "is she heavy?"
"No. She's pretty light." Vincent said, "are you gonna have more?" Both Faith and Bosco laughed loudly.
"No. She's our last." Bosco said.
"Mommy is too old to have any more." Faith sat down next to her family.
"You're not old." Vincent said. Faith smiled at her son. He was smiling brightly. He looked so much like Bosco when he smiled like that. Sofia started to fuss. "Uh oh."
"She is hungry. Let me see her." Faith took Sofia into her arms, "Hello, Pumpkin." Vincent watched with large eyes as Faith began to nurse the baby, "So, how do you like your new baby sister?" Vincent shrugged.
"She's better than Emily is, but she cries a lot." He said.
"Well,. you cried a lot too when you were this small." Bosco said.
"I wasn't loud like this touch and I didn't eat mommy's boob." He said. Faith laughed loudly.
"You did too." Bosco said. He wanted top say something naughty, but not in front of his children. Vincent got off of the couch.
"Okay, I'm done with her." Vincent walked out of the room. Bosco laughed softly.
"The love of a big brother." he said. Faith nodded.
"You should have seen it when I brought Charles home from the hospital." She said. "She was very jealous. She put a few stamps on his head and tried to give him to the postman."
"Did he have enough postage?" He chuckled tickling Sofia's foot.
"Thankfully no." Faith smiled. Bosco watched Sofia nurse. God, it was so sexy to see this. Once the six weeks were up, Bosco was going to jump his wife.

Faith slowly ran a brush through her knotty hair. She had just got home and she was ready to crash into her warm bed. She heard the front door open up and Charlie talking so loud. Emily walked downstairs and found Charlie draped over his girlfriend, shoving his tongue down her throat. She cleared her throat.
"Excuse me." Faith said. Charlie pulled away. Catherine wiped her lips.
"Oh Hi, Ma." He smiled weakly.
"Hi Mrs.. Boscorelli." Catherine blushed.
"Hi..." Faith crossed her arms. "What are you guys doing?"
"Oh I thought we'd come back here and watch a few movies." Charlie said.
"Did you put gas in the truck?" Faith asked.
"Yes, Ma'am." Charlie said. Faith looked at Catherine. She seemed to be hiding behind Charlie.
"Girl, I'm not going to bite you." She chuckled.
"You might..." Catherine said.
"Shhh." Charlie hissed. Faith narrowed her eyes.
"You're not pregnant are you?" She asked.
"No!" Both Catherine and Catherine cried.
"Then what's going on?" Faith asked, "and don't say anything. I'm a mother. I know." Charlie licked his lips.
"Okay...Don't freak out." He said.
"I cannot promise that." Faith said, "But tell me."
"All right." He took in a deep breath. "I um...I proposed to Catherine and she said yes."
"What??" Faith snapped. her eyes dropped down to Catherine's hand and saw the ring. "Oh my god...."
"We're in love." Charlie said.
"YOURE SEVENTEEN!!!!!" Faith cried. "No! No! No!"
"Mrs. B, we're not going to get married for a while." Catherine said.
"you bet your asses!" Faith cried, "I am calling your mother, Catherine."
"Please don't." Catherine said, "I'm going to tell her tonight, but let me tell her. She deserves to hear it from me."
"Go home, Cat." Faith said. Catherine bit her lip and looked at Charlie.
"I should go." She said. Charlie nodded and kissed her forehead.
"I'll see you tomorrow." He said opening the door.
"I hope so." Catherine whispered stepping outside. Charlie closed the door. he was afraid to turn around and look at his mother but her did.
"Get. In. That. Living. Room. Now." Faith gritted her teeth.
"No. I can stand right here and be yelled at just as easy." Charlie said, "I know you're going there."
"Why? Why are you doing this to me?" Faith asked.
"For once this isn't about you. I love Catherine with all of my heart and when we're both eighteen, I plan on marrying her." Charlie said, "You can accept this marriage and be there or you can not accept this marriage and sulk at home." Faith stared at Charlie. He was a young man following his heart. He was three inches taller than her and probably about sixty pounds heavier than she was. She couldn't slap him like she wanted to. She wanted to scream. Faith leaned against the wall and closed her eyes tightly.
"You're breaking my heart." She whispered. Charlie sighed deeply.
"I don't mean to, Ma." He said
"You're just so young." Faith said.
"I know." Charlie said, "I feel this is right though." Faith looked at her son.
"Just...Just go upstairs." She said. Charlie nodded and walked up the stairs to his bedroom. Faith felt sick to her stomach. Life was changing too quickly and she didn't like it one bit,
