Tim opened his eyes the next morning and looked down at his wife still lying on his chest. They had spent a wonderful night together and then fallen asleep. They both slept better than they had since all the problems with the pregnancy started. He wanted to get up to be downstairs for the boys but he didn't want to wake Jill. He lay there a little longer and thought back over the last few months. Jill had been working so hard to be with the babies at the hospital all the time and he wondered how the other kids felt about that. He knew what they had been saying, that everything was alright and they were just happy the babies were safe, but he knew that there must be some resentment that the twins had taken away their mother. Even though she tried to be there to make them breakfast in the mornings and see them off to school she had been very distracted. Now though it was summer. He had a great idea, he tapped Jill on the shoulder she moaned a little and opened her eyes. She smiled at him and said, "Hmmm." He said, "I have an idea." She said, "Again." He looked at her and said, "I would love to but no. It was about the boys. We have been so focused on the twins that we haven't spent a lot of family time together and I was thinking that since it is summer and all that we should take them to the water park." Jill said, "But what about the babies? I need to be there in case something happens, they need me to feed them and the nurses they are" Tim interrupts her and says, "Jill, you need some time away from the hospital. The twins will be fine. They are in one of the finest ICN's in the country and we know all the nursing staff is excellent." Jill sits up and says, "But" Tim says, "No buts you are coming with me whether you want to or not. We can visit the babies this evening. We need to spend time with our other children." She smiled at him and knew she had lost plus it would be fun to just goof off for the day.

The boys were sitting at the kitchen table when their parents came down the stairs. Tim was the first to say, "Boys we have something fun planned for the day." The boys looked at each other and Brad replied, "Dad we were talking and we really don't want to go to the hospital today. We were thinking that maybe we could spend the weekend with grandmom." Jill could see how upset they were, how had she not noticed it before. She felt terrible that she was neglecting her boys she said, "Well if you would rather do that then go to the water park." They all got huge smiles on their faces and said, "No the water park is good."

The Taylor's spent the rest of the day at the water park. They had a blast and no one was ready for the day to end. They decided to go miniature golfing to end the night. When they arrived home they were all exhausted. Brad looked at his parents and said, "That was a great day. Thanks." He gave them big hugs and so did Randy and Mark. They went off to get ready for bed and Tim noticed tears in Jill's eyes. He walked over to her, put his arms on her shoulders and asked, "Honey, what's wrong?" She hugged him and said, "I feel like a horrible mother. I have been so preoccupied with the twins that I have been ignoring our other children. How am I going to be able to handle 5 kids?" Tim cupped her face with his hands and said, "You are not a horrible mother. You have 5 children who adore you and who know that you adore them. And you won't be alone, I will always be here for you to lean on." He brought her face to his and gave her a kiss. She gave him a big smile and said, "I know I will." Then she went up to take a shower and left for the hospital to visit the twins.

The next week went by and it was time for the twins to come home. Jill and Tim were ecstatic, they were finally going to have their whole family under one roof. The boys were happy too because that meant that their mom was going to be home more and they wouldn't have to rely on their dad's help with their homework.

When Tim and Jill arrived home from the hospital with their new twins, everyone they most loved was there. The boys, with the help of Wilson, had set up a little surprise party for the homecoming. Tim and Jill were very grateful to all of their friends and family for their support during one of the most difficult times in their lives. After everyone left they brought the babies up to their new nursery and put them to sleep. Jill sat in the rocking chair and just watched her beautiful babies sleep thinking my family is now complete. She didn't notice Tim at the door watching her thinking the same thing.
