"Ok, he probably has an ear infection. I will take him to Urgency Care. Ya'll go back to sleep."
"Are you sure?" Martin asked. "Your mama and I can come." "Thanks daddy, but I can handle this. No point in all of us being tired."
Theresa wrapped Kale up and placed him in the car seat and drove to Harmony Hospital. She went in and the lady checked her in. Kale was still fussy. Fifteen minute later Kale was called and she walked back with him.
"Theresa?" Eve said.
"Dr. Russell?" Theresa said.
"I should have known. You mom has told me Kale's name so many times." "It's ok."
"So what is wrong?"
"I think he has an ear infection." "Ok, why don't we take a look?" They walked to the back and Eve examined him.
"You are right. He has an ear infection in the left ear. I will give you some meds to give him, also some drops for pain."
"Thank you."
Eve left and returned ten minutes later with some meds for him.
"Ok, she ten days for the antibiotic and the drops when he needs them. Give him plenty of fluids and I would like to see you in two weeks for his check up." "Ok," Theresa put the meds in her purse and headed home with a now sleeping Kale. She gave him his meds and he went back to sleep. She placed him in his bed and went to hers. There was a soft knock on the door. Pilar came in.
"Is he ok?"
"Yes mama. He has an ear infection so Dr. Russell gave him some meds."
"Ok, well get some sleep." Pilar kissed her, moved over and kissed Kale and left so they could sleep.
They slept into the morning and woke when her cell went off. "Hello?"
"Theresa, it is Ivy."
"What can I do for you?"
"Sheridan asked me to call you and see if you would join us."
"Umm, sure let me get Kale ready and wew will be over soon." Theresa got Kale dress and herself and headed down to the kitchen. Pilar, Martin and Luis were sitting around the table.
"Well good morning sleepy head." Luis said.
"This is what time we would get up in Paris." Theresa said.
She fixed Kale some food and gave him his meds.
"You used to fight tooth and nail when you have to get meds." Martin said. They all laughed.
"You still do." Theresa said and they laughed loader.
"So, what do you have planned for today?" Pilar asked.
"Well Sheridan had Ivy call to ask me to come help with wedding stuff and then I promises Kale he could go for a swim with Ethan later." "Sounds interesting." Martin said. Kale finished eating and he and Theresa left.
They arrived at the Mansion ten minutes later and when in. Kale sat playing with his toys while Theresa helped the girls decide. "I think the blue ones." Ivy said. "They would contrast with the purple. I say go light pink or Lavender." Theresa said. "She is right." Gwen said. "Ethan!" Kale said when he walked in. He ran over and Ethan picked him up. "Hey buddy." Ethan sat him back down. "So how are your plans coming?" "Good." Sheridan said. Luis showed up to help with some things. At lunch time Ivy brought in food and Theresa sat feeding Kale. "Theresa I was thinking last night. How about Kale be our ring bearer?" Sheridan said. "I don't see why not, but it is up to him. Kale would you like to be Uncle Luis and Aunt Sheridan's ring bearer?" He tilted his head and then shock it yes. "Ok, looks like you have a ring bearer." Theresa said. They went over more plans and Ivy and Gwen left for a meeting at the Country Club, Sheridan and Luis left to pick out china patterns. "So, how about that swim?" Ethan suggested. "Swim." Kale said. "Ok." Theresa said. They headed out to the pool. They all changed and climbed in. Kale held onto Theresa because he was scared. He would splash water at Ethan. Sheridan and Luis heard all the noise and came to see what was going on. "Hey you two want to join?" Theresa asked. "Sure." Sheridan said,
They changed and all hopped in. Kale would splash them all and they had a great time. Theresa wanted to get some water so Ethan help Kale. They sat floating and looked peaceful. Ivy and Gwen returned. "Theresa, your hair is all wet." Ivy said. "Oh we were in the pool." "We?" Ivy said. "Sheridan, Luis, Kale and Ethan." "Having a good time I hope." Ivy said. "Well Ethan and Kale had fun yesterday so Ethan promises him he would take him swimming today." "Ok." Theresa made her way back out with the ladies. They saw Ethan and Kale lying in the pool. "Looks like he is daydreaming." Ivy said. "Well I should get Kale out before her turns into a raisin." Theresa said. Ivy laughed. Gwen stood looking at the sight of her husband. He looked so happy. He helped Theresa get Kale out of the pool and dried off. "So, Kale we should get going." Theresa said. "Ethan come?" "Baby Ethan lives here with Gwen. You'll see him another time." He looked all sad. "You know the Harmony summer festival is starting this weekend how about we all go and have fun away from wedding plans?" Gwen said. "Sounds wonderful." Theresa said. She got Kale dressed and they headed home.
