From Kevin's Point of View
Saturday January 24th, 2012
I opened the door to Jenny and Hannah's room quietly and slipped in. I made my way over to Jenny's bed after picking up the pink jacket off the floor and hanging it on the footboard of the bed. I sat down and shook Jenny awake. "Jenny wake up. Come on wake up sweetheart." Jenny's eyes opened and she crawled her way into my lap.
"Hi Daddy." Her baby blue eyes made me melt. She looks like a miniature Lucy.
"Hi sweetheart. Happy birthday. Mommy made you breakfast. So let's go downstairs. But you have to be quite so we don't wake Hannah up." She looked at her sister and turned her attention back to me.
"Can you carry me?"
"Hey what happened to my big girl whose eight today?" She smiled and whispered, "She's very tired because her daddy woke her up." Of course she's going to get her way. I just like to listen to her reason with me.
"Okay." I picked her up and we left the pink bedroom and Hannah behind. I carried her all the way down the stairs and into the kitchen.
"Daddy down." I set her down on the floor and she ran to Lucy. "Morning Mommy!"
"Happy birthday Jenny. How's my eight year old?"
"Good. What's for breakfast?" She looked around as she talked.
"Your favorite, waffles."
"Yay!"
"Shhh! Jenny your brothers and sisters are still asleep." I scolded her. "Now sit down at the table so we can eat." She did as she was told and Lucy placed a big pile of waffles in front of her. She lit the candle that was in the middle of the pile.
"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Jenny. Happy birthday to you." Lucy and I both sung at the same time. After Jenny blew out the candle we started to eat. We were all talking when Lucy started to look sick. She pushed back her chair and ran into the bathroom. I looked at Jenny was about to say morning sickness when Jenny beat me to the punch.
"Morning sickness. I know Dad." She took another bite of her waffle as I stood up to tend to Lucy. How my little girl got to be big I'll never know. It seems like yesterday that she was just taking her first steps. Now she can do every thing for herself. She doesn't need me anymore. I opened the door to the bathroom and sit down next to Lucy.
"Can I do anything for you?"
"If you can stop the morning sickness then yes but since you can't, no." I know what her answer will be before I even ask. It's the same answer every time. I feel bad for leaving Jenny alone at the table on her birthday. And I think Lucy can read my mind because her next comment is, "Go. Eat with Jenny. I know you feel bad." I kissed the top of her head and stood up. I left the bathroom and went back to kitchen. Lucy joined us five minutes later. "I'll do the dishes and reset the table if you two will wake everyone up so we can everyone else off on time." Jenny slides out her chair and pulls me up the stairs to everyone's rooms. We wake Hannah up first and they both leave to wake Rachel and Rebekah up. I wake Joshua and Adam up and then Aaron and Caleb up. Jenny holds Caleb's hand as he walks down the stairs and I follow with baby Aaron.
After the rest of the "crew" had eaten breakfast it was time to get them dressed. Aaron was by far the easiest to get dressed. All you have to do is snap on a one piece, short sleeve body suit and a pair of overalls and slide on a pair of socks. All I had to do for Rachel and Rebekah was help them pull their black corduroy dresses over their red turtlenecks, pull on red socks, and tie white sneakers. I ran into Lucy in the hallway as she was trying to get Caleb dressed. (He runs away.) I sent Rebekah and Rachel in the playroom and put Aaron in his portable play pen we have in there. Soon Joshua and Adam joined them followed closely by Caleb. Now time to get Hannah and Jenny dressed. After telling Lucy that I have it covered and that she could get dressed I made my way into the pink bedroom. Jenny was standing next to her bed looking over the clothes she had pulled out of her closet while Hannah sat on the floor, fully clothed, and playing with her Barbies. I helped Jenny pick out a pair of tan pants and a purple shirt. She got dressed and I sent them both to the playroom as pulling both of their hair into a pony tail. I pulled a pair of white tights and black paten leather shoes from their closet. I left their room, went into mine, opened my closet, and pulled out a beautiful pink dress from my closet. Jenny is going to be so surprised.
Another A/N: Part 2 should be out soon. Please send me a review. I won't update unless I get some reviews.
