"It's ok baby girl daddy has you" Connor paced tiredly as he tried uselessly to calm Logan's frantic wails. "please stop crying … please".
He knew having a baby would be hard but he never imagined it would be this hard. Between work and taking care of Logan and relieving Ashley from staying with Kieran so she could go home to her own family, it was starting to get to him.

3 days earlier …
"Ash thanks for coming with me to pick Becky and Logan up"
"No problem" Ashley assured him. She made sure she had the diaper bag was secure on her shoulder.
"I can't wait for Becky to see what I did for the twin's bedroom" the giddy excitement was not hidden from his voice. Although it would have been so much better if Kieran could come home too but unfortunately he still wasn't ready to come home.
"You're gonna be a great dad Con" Ashley told him.
"Thanks sis" he gave her a little squeeze.
"Now let's get your baby girl home"
"Becks you are gonna be amazed at what I did to the nursery" Connor said as he entered the room but frowned when all he found was Logan asleep strapped into her car seat. Ashley followed behind him into the room, the huge smile she had sported on her face also turned into a frown identical to her little brother's.
Connor slowly walked over to the sleeping baby and picked up a folded yellow note that was sticking out between the straps.
Connor,
Ashley is right I am way too young to handle this. If you don't want to keep the babies I understand all I want for them is to grow up in a safe and healthy environment.
Becky
"It's her loss" Connor angrily crumbled up the note and picked up Logan's carrier "it's ok princess your daddy will never abandon you like your scumbag of a mother did"
