CHAPTER TWENTY NINE

Title- Aunt Mo-Mo!

Maureen arrived at the loft about ten minutes after we hung up. I wanted her to come over a bit earlier to go over some things with her. Mark and I have never left Owen and Sara alone with Maureen since, well, ever. I won't lie to you-I'm scared out of my mind. I mean, I can trust Maureen for the most part, but when it comes to leaving my children's' lives in her hands, I'm a bit nervous. Scratch that-I'm terrified.

Right now, Maureen was sitting on the couch while I got Owen and Sara up from their naps. I brought them both out and handed Sara to Maureen.

"Okay, so I just want to go over a few things before I leave," I told her. I started to tell her things about taking care of the twins, but instead of listening to me, she was playing with Sara.

She made a funny face and Sara began laughing at her. "Are you laughing at me, Sar-bear? Are you laughing at me?"

"Maureen? Are you listening to me?"

She completely ignored me. "Oh, yes, Sara. You are the cutest baby! Yes you are! Yes you are!"

"MAUREEN!"

"What?"

"Listen to me! I've been talking the whole time and you didn't hear a word of it!"

"No, I was listening. Honest, Mary, I was."

I smirked. "Okay, then. What did I say?"

"Umm…you said that…that…"

"Right. Okay then, do you promise to listen to me this time?" She nodded. To make sure that she did listen, I took Sara away from her and held both Owen and Sara myself.

"Alright, Mark and my cell phone numbers are by the phone in the kitchen. And the other emergency contacts are posted on the fridge." Maureen nodded as I spoke.

"Um, their formula is in the fridge. Just heat it up a bit and it'll be good to go." Maureen nodded again. Thank God she's listening.

Owen started crying, making Sara start to scream, too. "Maureen, take Owen for me, will ya?"

"Yeah, sure Mar." She picked Owen up and started to make funny faces at him. I guess she thought they would calm him down, but they made him even more scared. "Shh, Owen. It's okay. Aunt Mo-Mo's here for—"

"Aunt Mo-Mo?" The expression on my face must have been priceless.

"What?"

"What type of name is 'Aunt Mo-Mo'?" I tried to control my laughter.

"What? You don't like it? I thought it was cute!"

I started laughing even harder. "Maureen! It makes you sound like…never mind. It's great, okay? Now show me that you can calm Owen down, okay?"

Maureen nodded. She talked to Owen in a baby voice and he calmed down relatively quickly. Maybe she can do this!

"Okay, Aunt Mo-Mo, can you change Owen's diaper for me? Sara needs to be changed, too, but I can change her's."

Maureen's eyes widened and she started to stutter. "I…I…I've never…"

"You've never changed a diaper before?"

She shook her head. "What? I'm the youngest in my family and all my cousins are older than me! I've had no reason to change diapers-ever!"

I sighed very loudly and rolled my eyes. "Okay, Maureen. I'll show you. It's really not that hard, honest." I stood up and brought Sara to the changing table. Maureen placed Owen on his changing table, right next to Sara's. She watched me change Sara and I told her to try Owen's. I stood there watching her until she spoke up.

"C-can you not watch me do it? I-I get nervous when people stand over me like that. Just come back in five minutes. I'll be done, I promise."

I sighed. "Okay, Maureen. I'll be back." I picked Sara up and went to go watch a movie with her. I popped a Baby Einstein video in and she watched intently.

Five minutes were up. I got up, Sara in my arms, and opened the nursery door. Maureen stood before me, covered with baby powder and diaper rash cream. Owen, however, was diapered perfectly. "I'm not even gonna ask, Maureen."

"Good idea, Mar. But, I did it, right? See!" She held my son before me and showed me her 'creation'.

I laughed. "Yeah, I'm not gonna ask how, but you did it." I smiled at her, took Owen, and brought him into the living room to watch the movie. Maureen went in the bathroom to wash the baby powder off of her. Her dark brown curls had been turned white from the powder and she was desperate to get them back to their true color. She came out of the bathroom ten minutes later, refreshed and cleaned up.

"Okay, Maureen. I've got to head out. I'm meeting Mark at the Life in ten minutes and then we're going to Dr. Latham's for my appointment."

"Yeah, what're you going to see her for anyway?"

I looked down. Should I tell her the truth? No, not until after I go to the doctors. "Um, nothing important. I'll tell you more about it later, okay?" I felt bad not telling her the truth, but it had to be done.

She nodded. "See you soon!" She looked over at Owen and Sara. "Say bye-bye to Mommy!" Sara and Owen giggled a bit. I went over, kissed both of their foreheads, and headed out the door. Little did I know that when I returned home, my life would be changed forever.
