Chapter One
BIRTHDAY WISHES
It was early May when my triplets told me what they wanted for their birthday.
With their birthday being two months away I guess they wanted me to be prepared.
It was that night at dinner when my six year old daughter Alexis announced what she wanted. And it left me in shock.
"Mom?" asked Alexis
"Yes sweetie?"I replied
"I'm ready to tell you what we want for our birthday." she replied calmly
"Lexi I don't think we should tell her just yet…"Kasey said nervously
"...and why not? We are going to have to tell her sometime."
Even though my daughters were only six they were really mature and they always discussed things with each other before they did them.
"Guys just tell me, Lexi is right you are going to have to tell me if you really want it for your birthday."I replied anxiously.
"Well…" they all replied in unison
"Well what?" I asked impatiently
They kept looking at me for a few seconds for dramatic effect. The silence was agonizing."We want a daddy!" Cassidy replied suddenly.
With it coming to me in shock I couldn't move I just sat there wide eyed looking at them.
