I do not own anything from DWP I have just borrowed the characters for inspiration.

It was time for Andréa to have another OB/GYN visit with Dr. Jackson. Miranda and her were sitting in one of the exam rooms holding hands when Tammi entered the room. She saw the two gazing into each other's eyes as Miranda caressed Andréa's belly.

"Good morning."

Andréa and Miranda looked up and smiled at the Doctor. Tammi sat down and looked over Andrea's chart. "Well, everything looks good here, how are you feeling Andrea."

Andrea explained to Tammi how well everything was going. The only down side was she was feeling tired. Tammi explained this was not unusual and stated Miranda probably remembered this from her own pregnancy. Tammi gave Andrea strict orders to start cutting down on her work hours.

"And that does not mean you take your laptop home and work from there. I want you to try to take a two-hour nap every day." Tammi instructed.

Miranda grinned, "I will see to that."

Andréa glared, and Tammi laughed. "Andrea, please it is for the babies own good. Because of the multiple birth and your history of the miscarriage the chances of you going into preterm labor is increased. Although if you would deliver now the babies are viable, but we want them to stay inside of you for as long as possible. Help them to be born health."

This piece of information scared Andy and she promised to lay down on the couch at work for two hours in the middle of the work day. Tammi smiled and nodded.

"I have one more thing to discuss with you. Have you thought about how you want your delivery to go?"

Andréa looked at her than Miranda, "What do you mean?"

"Well, as long as the labor goes without any problems there are multiple choices you can make for delivery." Tammi handed her a few pamphlets. "Do not let these confuse you or try to figure out what is best. They all are good and all you need to decide is what you would like. Go over it with Miranda and make a plan. Bring it with you on your next appointment and we will go over it with you. Do you or you Miranda have any questions?"

"What are the chances of me having a regular delivery?" Andréa questioned.

Tammi smiled, "At this point I see no reason why you wouldn't, but there is a lot that can change it. We can never know. I had no reason to think Miranda would not deliver naturally, but the girls changed that plan. So you should read the part about cesarean sections just to prepare yourself." Andrea nodded. Tammi studied Andrea. "What is troubling you?"

"There is a lot that can go wrong. It is very scary." Andréa could barely get out.

Miranda squeezed Andréa's hand and Tammi put a hand on her knee. "Andrea do not dwell on that. Yes think about it to prepare yourself but do not worry about it. Continue to enjoy your pregnancy everything is going fine."

Andrea smiled, "I will. Thank you."

Once the couple got to Elias-Clarke Miranda kissed Andréa as she exited the elevator, "Remember a two-hour nap."

Andréa smiled, "I will remember."

Miranda exited the elevator without a single order. Corinne was puzzled. Miranda sat at her desk and noticed there was no coffee. "Where is my coffee? Did Roy not text you to let you know I was on my way" Miranda was amazed at how difficult this simple task was always so hard for the assistants to complete.

Miranda picked up her phone and dialed. "Anna."

"Miranda! Is everything all right?"

"Sorry to scare you Anna, yes Andréa is fine." Miranda reassured.

There was a breath of air released from Anna.

"I just think Andréa could use her Mother for some support right now." Miranda relayed the events of the Doctor's appointment. She knew how scared she was when she was close to delivering. She sighed, it would have been nice to have her Mother with her.

Anna agreed. "Richard and I will be there as soon as we can get a flight out."

Miranda smiled, "Let me know when your flight arrives so Roy can come pick you up. I will have the guest bedroom opened up for the two of you."

"Miranda thank you for calling." Miranda amazed her every time they came in contact. She still could not get over how maternal the woman was.

Two days later Richard and Anna was dropped off at the townhome by Roy. Roy assisted Richard with the luggage, "Ms. Andy will be so happy to see the two of you. I know she misses you."

Richard thanked Roy. Richard and Anna were greeted by Kara and sent to the living room to relax after their long flight. She brought in drinks and a snack.

"Andy and the girls are going to be so surprised. The whole family misses having you around."

Anna thanked Kara, "when will the girls be home from school?"

Kara looked at the clock, "in about an hour." Kara left the room.

Richard sat back, "I know what you are going to say."

"Richard, our daughter is having twins, our first grandchildren."

"No, we already have two Grandchildren."

Anna slapped Richard on the knee, "You know what I mean. Twins Richard! She will need help."

"She has Kara, and Miranda is retiring, plus Miranda's sister is around."

"Did you forget that Miranda is not retiring for a full month after the twins come, and she will be very busy that month? And Bonnie is due a few months after Andréa. Richard it would not be hard with your reputation to find a job here."

Richard took a deep breath, "O.K. I will look around while we are here."

Anna hugged Richard tightly, "Thank you sweetheart."

"Well, I would like to see all four of our Grandchildren grow up too."

Just then the front door flew open, "Kara, we're home what can we have to eat?"

"Hungry are you?" came the booming voice of Richard.

"Grandpa!" shouted the girls. The girls ran and jumped into his arms. "When did you get here? Is Grandma here too?"

Richard laughed, "Yes she is." He carried them into the living room and set them down.

They ran over to Anna hugging her tight. "How long are you staying?"

Anna looked at Richard, "We do not know yet."

"We felt the babies kick." Caroline announced proudly.

Anna smiled, "I heard you have new bedrooms. Are you going to show Grandpa and me?"

"Yes, come with us." Cassidy grabbed her hand and pulled her off the couch.

Later that evening Anna, Richard and the girls heard the front door open.

The girls put their finger up to their lips, "Shhh we should surprise them."

Anna and Richard nodded. The girls walked out to the door, "We have a surprise for you Andy."

Andréa looked at the girls than Miranda. Miranda shook her head and shrugged her shoulders. The girls took each one of Andy's hands and drugged her to the living room.

Andy stood shocked, "Mom, Daddy." Andy started crying, and Richard and Anna went over to hug their Daughter.

Richard looked at Anna, "O.K."

Anna smiled with tears running down her face.

Miranda smiled at the exchange. She was right. Andréa needed her Mother, and she was glad she had called.

That night while they ate Anna made an announcement, "Andy, your Father and I have decided to move to New York."

Andy sat in shock, "Really?"

Richard nodded, "We decide we missed the girls too much and now with the twins coming."

Andy was crying and the girls were jumping up and down, "Yea!"

Miranda reached over and hugged Andréa smiling.

Anna went over and hugged Andy, "I want to help you with the babies."

"Thank you Mom."

Miranda looked at Richard, "What about your job?"

Richard shrugged, "I doubt it will be all that difficult to find a job here in town. I have a few contacts."

"Oh Daddy are you sure? You have been with the firm for years in Chicago."

Richard with tears in his eyes nodded, "I would not miss this for anything Baby Girl."
