For the World
For #24:
"When you relinquish the desire to control your future, you can have more happiness." –Nicole Kidman

It's not unusual to find Suki sulking in a corner, wondering why she made her choice.
Days like this, when the dishes pile near to the ceiling and dirty socks are flung in all directions. Days when dirt covered floors and a leaky roof decide to team up like Toph and Katara fighting for their lives to make the warrior miserable. Days when there's scarcely any food and too little of money, and the garden out back is unmanageable because she's never gardened in her life and refuses to even think of doing it now.
When bloody bandages, healing herbs, and "let's see who can stuff the most leechy nuts in their nose" become the least of her worries, she finds herself in a corner wishing she'd have never left Kyoshi Island.
"Suki! HELP!"
But when she can look up and see her husband fighting for his life beneath dirty clothes, mud monsters and leechy nut nose stuffers, she knows she wouldn't trade this life for the world.
"MOMMY! Daddy got three fish 'ooks in 'is finger!"

FINALLY! I've been trying to upload this thing since Saturday:P Thanks for all the reviews! They're messed up in my inbox right now, but I'm getting 'em! Lol. I've got a lot of good ideas thrown at me, so I'm about to start throwing stories back. As long as this site doesn't EVER do that to me again.
For Penbee of Treewood and Chibi Horsewoman who wanted a little Sokka/Suki action. Just a little look at family life, 'cause I kind of know how it goes sometimes. And I know there isn't a lot of Sokka/Suki.
