The next morning Amy woke up as the sunlight began to shine into the room and looked over at Ty. She whispered "I'll be glad when we get home. I hope you are pleased with what I have done to the farm."
Ty opened his eyes and saw his beautiful wife smiling down on him. This was one thing he missed while he was in Grand Prairie. "As soon as we get up and have something for breakfast I'll load everything in the truck and we can hit the road."
Although it was a dreary, rainy day Amy was happy once they were on the road.
"By the way," Ty told Amy, "Scott said he would give me my old job back and that I could have a few days to get settled before I have to go to work."
As soon as Ty graduates they would be able to realize their dream of working together. Ty would heal horse's physical problems and Amy would deal with the psychological issues. "We can remodel the barn so that you can have an office" Amy suggested.
"By the way, has the doctor said anything about you working while pregnant? We can't have anything happen to our little one." Ty suggested as he patted Amy's abdomen.
"For now I can still work as usual but as time goes on I'll have to reduce my work load is all the advised." Amy explained.
As they drew near the farm the skies cleared and Amy stated "The skies seem like an omen. They are clearing up just as we get you back to where you belong."
As they drove up to the farmhouse, Fern, who was sitting on the porch, came over to Amy. She was a bit skeptical of Ty but he stated "We'll be friends in short order." as he petted her and began to walk to the barn with Amy. As soon as they entered the barn, Spartan noticed them and came to the front of his stall and nickered and immediately recognized Ty. Bindi and Babuska stock their heads from their stalls and Amy patted each on their heads while Ty quickly looked both over and remarked "They both seem healthy. I'll give them a better look at after we get settled."
Amy suggested "Why not come into the house to see how it has come along."
"This is amazing. You have done a great job making this our home."
Amy stated "We'll have to decide what room will become the nursery. There will be a little time to decorate it."
Shortly later Lou, Georgie and Katie pulled up in front of the house. "It's great to have you back. Take care of my baby sister and her little one." Lou advised. "I told dad that Ty is back and before dad could say anything I warned him to keep his mouth shut or he will have me to answer to."
"Thanks Lou. All we want is to enjoy Ty's return. If dad thanks that he can interfere in or lives he has another thing coming. We can either let him be part of our lives or exclude him. The choice is his and he will be told that." Amy said
About an hour later Tim came by and evidently Lou's warning had some effect because when he saw Ty he put out his hand and shook Ty's and said "It's nice to have you back."
