iris isis- has anyone ever told you how smart you are? hehe I found my title! I'm going to call it, Raising Aliens! Like it?

Here's another chappy just for you!


At the house were me, Is, Jim, Kyle, Jesse and my mom. We were waiting on the arrival of Liz, Max, and the birthday boys along with my husband. I've never seen so many presents; my boys were definately spoiled by most of the people in town. Liz's parents sent over gifts as did the Evan's. Even the Whitmans sent over presents. I hope all the spoiling doesn't last too long...

I served everyone drinks and set out food for everyone to eat, but it seemed like Kyle was the only one that was hungry; maybe he's the only one crazy enough to try my cooking...

After 10 minutes, Micheal is home with the boys. It was utter chaos now; arms and legs flailing around as grandparents, aunts, and uncles greeted the birthday boys. Micheal made his way to me and kissed me square on the lips. "Hey, you."

"Hey, yourself," I replied and pulled him back for another kiss. "I missed you all day," I mumbled against his lips.

"Hmmm," he replied and deepened the kiss. We were oblivous to all around us until I heard a voice I distinctly know as my mother's shrill scream "MARIA!"

I turned to see everyone staring at us; Kyle, Is and Jim were stifiling laughter, my mother looked appalled and the boys were making faces of disgust at us. "Where are Max and Liz when you need them to make an entrance?" I muttered and Micheal stiffled his laughter. He kissed me on the nose and pulled away. He mouthed 'later' and walked over to Kyle and Jim.

I smiled at my mother who was still disgusted and then walked over to my sons. "Mikey? Why don't you go talk to Nana Amy about where daddy took you, okay? Brandon, how about you go talk to aunt Izzy about the park? Nathan, come talk to mommy," I took his hand and lead him to the couch. "I had to get the attention off me! Nana Amy looked mad at me!"

"You kissed daddy! That was yucky" Nathan giggled.

"I did kiss daddy! I kiss daddy all the time, but I don't usually get caught by Nana Amy!" I said and he laughed again.

"You silly, mama!" he squealed and I smiled.

"You're silly, Nathan!" I replied and began to tickle him. I stopped every once in a while to make sure he was still breathing, but we kept this up for a while.

There was a knock at the door. Liz and Max were here, now the party could really start. We had everyone sit in the living room while Isabel and I brought out the cake. We all sang and they blew out the candles. Everyone ate cake and ice cream and then Mikey, Brandon, and Nate begged to open all their presents.

Hours later, we were saying goodbye to my mom and Jim, the last ones to leave besides Kyle, Izzy and Jesse who were helping us clean up. There was wrapping paper everywhere and food plates, too. The boys were already asleep, all with a new toy tucked in with them. Another hour later, Micheal and I were all alone.

"Ugh. I am so tired" I said as we were crawling into bed.

"Me, too, baby. Me, too," Micheal flopped down and closed his eyes, reaching out to me. I obliged and we snuggled up close, his head on my chest. I played with his hair, smoothing it back from his face. He looked extremely tired, the lines in his face were deep, but they were beginning to fade as his troubles were being solved with sleep.

I watched him, amazed at how great Micheal really turned out to be. He wasn't Stonewall Guerin anymore. He was a father and a husband. He was a son to Jim and my mother. I was glad to be a part of the family he always wanted. I never really got to watch him sleep, as I always fall asleep first, but now I wish I could do this every night. Watch my Micheal let go of his troubles and fall into a deep sleep.

I kissed his lips lightly. "Good night, Micheal" I whispered and layed my head down, falling asleep with dreams of my Micheal.
