Note: I had planned to have this up earlier but you know how it is when life gets in the way. So here it is now. I hope you enjoy. A special thanks to those of you who review my stories and wait patiently for them, especially Ghostwriter who is my only faithful reviewer. I appreciate it so much.

"Come on Patrick, let's go surprise Mommy." Kat heard Tommy as he led their son into their bedroom. She had just woken up and was still lying in bed when her husband entered the room carrying a tray followed by their 3 year old son who was holding a long stem rose.

"What's all this?" Kat asked with a smile on her face.

"Patrick and I got up extra early to make you breakfast in bed," Tommy told her as he set down the tray and gave his wife a quick kiss on the lips.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Mommy," Patrick said as he climbed up on the bed and handed Kat the rose.

"Happy Valentine's Day to you too, Mommy loves you so much," Kat said as she gave her son a kiss on the cheek.

"Patrick why don't you stay here and help Mommy eat, Daddy's going to go clean the kitchen," Tommy said as he left the room.

"I hope you didn't mess up my kitchen too bad," Kat called after him as she began to eat.

"Mommy, where's the new baby?" Patrick questioned out of the blue.

"Remember what Mommy and Daddy explained to you, the baby has to grow inside of Mommy's tummy first, just like you did before you were born," Kat explained.

"I'm gonna be a big brother," Patrick said.

"That's right you are, you're going to be the best big brother in the world," Kat replied.

Hours later, Kat sat at her desk in the office of Kim's gym doing paper work.

"So do you and Tommy have big plans for later tonight?" Kim questioned.

"Tommy told me that he hired a sitter for Patrick but other than that he's keeping it all a secret, what about you and Jason," Kat replied.

"Well, Jason's parents offered to baby-sit Jayne so I think we're going to go out to dinner, we haven't been out on a date in forever," Kim told her. Kim had given birth to daughter Jayne six months ago and had only recently been back at work teaching gymnastics.

"Oh I remember those days all too well, having a baby can really change things fast and just think we're about to do it all over again," Kat remarked.

"Yeah but you and Tommy are great parents, I'm sure everything will work out fine," Kim told her.

After work, Katherine entered her house and found Tommy waiting for her in the living room.

"So do I get to know what you have planned yet or is it still a big secret?" Kat questioned her husband.

"Well, the babysitter will be here at 7 and we're going out, all you have to do is make yourself beautiful, though I guess that won't be too hard because you're already the most beautiful woman in the world," Tommy said as he kissed her.

"See this is why I love your daddy so much, he always knows just the right things to say," Kat spoke as she gently rubbed her belly.

Right at 7 the doorbell rang and Tommy went to answer it. Standing at the door was one of his students who had volunteered to baby-sit.

"Thanks so much for doing this Lynn," Tommy said as he let her in the house.

"No problem Dr. O, luckily for you I don't really care about this whole Valentine's thing so I was glad for anything to take my mind off of it," Lynn told him.

"Well, Patrick is in the family room watching a movie and Kat and I shouldn't be gone for more than a couple of hours," Tommy informed her.

"Stay as long as long as you want, I don't mind," Lynn replied.

"Ok, I am finally ready to go," Kat said as she came down the stairs.

"Wow, you look beautiful," Tommy told her as he helped her put on her coat.

"I look as good as I can in my condition," Kat joked.

"No Mrs. O, he's right you look really nice," Lynn told her.

"Thank you Lynn, Patrick you be good for Lynn while we're gone," Kat said to her son who had come into the room.

"I will Mommy," he promised.

Tommy drove Kat to the most expensive restaurant in Angel Grove.

"Oh Tommy, we didn't have to come here, I would have been happy at any restaurant, as long as I was with you," Kat said once they were seated at a table.

"I know, I just wanted to do something really special for you," Tommy replied.

"Yeah, but can we afford this?" Kat asked.

"Well that's something I wanted to talk to you about, it turns out that I'll be getting paid a lot more for this dig I'm going on in the summer than we realized," Tommy informed her.

"Ok, how much more?" Kat questioned.

"Enough to pay for us to come here, plus enough that we'll finally be able to start saving for our kids college fund, there's only one catch though," Tommy explained.

"Ok, just tell me," Kat said.

"They don't want me on the expedition for a couple of weeks; they want me to stay for 3 months," Tommy informed her.

"That means you might miss the birth of the baby," Kat told him.

"I know and I won't go if you don't want me to," Tommy told her.

"No, you should go, I mean I'll miss you terribly but that money would really do some good for us and I know how much you want to go, it's a great opportunity for you," Kat decided.

"I just hate the idea of leaving you alone during the last months of your pregnancy, especially with having to take care of Patrick," Tommy said.

"Don't worry that's one of the great things about us living here in Angel Grove, I'll have my parents, and yours to help out, not to mention Kim and Jason next door," Kat told him.

"Ok but I promise to call you every single day," Tommy said as he took her hand from across the table.

"I'm sure you'll call so much that it won't even seem like you're gone," Kat teased.

"Ha Ha, you keep it up and I won't give you this present that's burning a whole in my pocket," Tommy told her.

"I thought this dinner was my present," Kat replied.

"That was only part of it, this is the rest," Tommy said as he handed her a jewelry box.

"Oh Tommy, it's beautiful!" Kat exclaimed as she opened the box and saw the pink sapphire bracelet that was inside.

"I'm glad you like it," he replied.

"Oh honey but I've been so busy that I didn't have time to get anything for you," Kat told him apologetically.

"It's ok, beside I already have what I want, I have you," Tommy said.

"I love you so much Tommy and I am so proud of the way that you take care of me and Patrick and I couldn't ask for a better husband," Kat told him.

"I feel the same way, marrying you was the best thing to ever happen to me and having Patrick and now this new baby has truly made me realize what a wonderful life we have together," Tommy replied.

"Happy Valentine's Day," Kat said.
