Three Years Later
"Mommy." Eleanor giggles as I keep kissing her cheek.
"Let me do your hair sweetie." I say to my three year old. I continue to brush her hair. I braid her dark brown hair into pigtails.
She has my hair and eyes but there is something in there that reminds me of Finnick.
"There you go sweetie." I say and she hugs me.
"Thank you Mommy." She says and kisses me.
I kiss the top of her head.
"Go play and be nice to your brother." I say. Eleanor and Nick have gotten to that age where they like to fight with each other over everything.
I hear Finnick walk downstairs, he is carrying our two year old. She has hair so gold that it looks like the sun. I doubt it will stay that way forever but it makes her look very cute.
"Mommy." She says and reaches for me.
"She keeps asking for Mommy." Finnick says and kisses the top of her head.
"Come here Amelia." I say and take her from Finnick. We didn't even argue over her name, Amelia Margaret Odair.
She leans against my chest.
"I wanna play." She whispers and points to the play room.
"You wanna play with your brother and sister?" I ask and she nods. She wants to do everything her older sister does.
"Okay." I say and let her walk there. She still isn't the best walker.
I smile and watch them all play together. The peacefulness probably won't last long so I just soak it up.
Life is made up of moments. Good ones, bad one, but they're all worth it. It's what makes life so great. You can't have the good without the bad. Within the past few years, my life has been up and down. But none of that really matters because Finnick and I are always able to get through things together. I love him and I always will.
Finnick walks into the playroom and wraps his arm around my waist.
"Do you want anything?" Finnick asks.
I shake my head and just look at our children.
I smile and shake my head. All I need right now is the view of our smiling children and Finnick by my side.
"No." I smile and kiss him "Just this."
