Tuesday Morning
Samantha and Vivian were sitting in the conference room surrounding by what seemed like a mountain of paperwork that they were getting caught up on.
Vivian asked Sam, "How was the weekend babysitting? I remember when my husband and I spent a day watching my brother's kids when we were first married that the first thing I did when I got home was to check and make sure my birth control pills still had refills on them. Not that we didn't enjoy the kids, but they were lots of work and I liked our life the way it was."
Sam laughed and replied, "I didn't go that far, but it didn't make me want to hurry up and have kids. I wouldn't be surprised if it sent Martin to check on my stash of pills. I don't think he had ever really spent enough time with kids before to understand how much time and energy they take."
Vivian laughed.
"He's spent time Ava before and even Jaime as little kid when he was a teenager, but he was always entertainment, never the one to deal with the messes or the tears. I think he realized that being Daddy might be a bigger deal than being fun Uncle Marty," replied Sam.
"Well," said Vivian "that's not a bad lesson to have him learn. Especially, if you aren't ready to think about kids for awhile."
