Power Ranger Family

"Emily! I'm home! Where are you?" I shout into the house but no response came. I then heard the sound of paws against wooden floors and looked down to see our little dog Jack coming to greet me.

"Hello beautiful boy, can you tell me where my beautiful wife is?" I asked while coming down to his level and scratching him. Jack takes off running, smiling I follow closely behind him and when I entered the lounge room I wasn't sure what to think. The couches were completely turned upside down with sheets stringing all over the place and playing on the TV was power rangers but I didn't know which team. I thought we had been robbed or something until I heard giggles coming from underneath the couches, I knew who those giggles belonged to anywhere.

Making my way over to the front of the lounge room where I found a small entrance way, laying in there was my beautiful wife Emily, alongside her were our 6 year old twin boys Max and Blake and then laying on top of Emily was our 2 year old daughter Elisabeth. The whole precision alone was cute but what made it even more adorable was they were all wearing power ranger outfits, Emily was the red ranger, Max the blue ranger, Blake the green power ranger and Elisabeth was the pink power ranger.

"Hey Mummy!" Both boys screeched when they saw me standing there. They both crawled out from underneath the cubby house and gave me a big hug.

Hearing the TV being paused, I replied with "Hi boys, did you have a good day with your Mum?"

"Yes," they both screeched excitedly.

I asked "Who's idea was this?"

Emily answered with "The boys wanted to build a cuddy house and I thought introducing them to the world of power rangers would be a neat compromise."

"Don't you think they're a little too young," I say taking Elisabeth into my arms while Emily crawled out.

"No, but if they have nightmares I'll go soothe them while you sleep."

"Good answer, because I definitely won't be."

"Mummy check out our new costumes," Max said while pointing to himself and Blake.

I say "You both make very cute power rangers. What series are you watching and portraying in costume only?"

"Light Speed Rescue, I'm Joel the green power ranger," Blake replied with.

Max said "I'm Chad the blue power ranger. Mum is Carter the red power ranger, though she the girl version of Carter." I smiled at Max explanation.

"And who is this little cutie?" I asked while poking Elisabeth's belly.

Emily said "Dana the pink power ranger, defender against danger and all who are evil." Elisabeth throws her arms in the air at the same time as Emily does, it was the most adorable thing ever.

"Mummy," Blake said while taking at my sleeve."

"Yes green power ranger."

"Mum got you a shirt to; can you please wear it and watch with us? Please."

"Please Mummy," Max added afterwards and I wondered if this had been a planned.

"Okay boys but only a couple episode or else we won't have tea tonight."

Emily said "Here you go," she pulled out a yellow power ranger costume for me to wear and it matched the others. Handing Elisabeth over to Emily to hold while I left the room and head upstairs, where I changed into the yellow power ranger costumer; only for my family I thought as I got changed. Looking myself in the full length mirror we kept in our bedroom, I couldn't help but smile at how ridiculous I look but amazing at the same time.

"It fit wonderfully," I heard Emily's voice say behind me.

Turning around I asked "How long have you been planning this?"

"Not long, power rangers were a huge part of my childhood and I wanted our kids to experience the same. With this day and age of technology I didn't think it would hurt anyone, are you mad?"

"Of course not Emily," I say to Emily's puppy dog face.

I asked "So who I am I?"

Emily replied with "Your Kelsey the yellow power ranger, the cutest power ranger of all time."

"Of course I am," I smiled up at Emily as she smiled down at me.

"We need one more kid Aria."

"Why? Isn't three enough for you?"

"Yes they are a handful but if we had another boy we'd complete the whole Light Speed Rescue team."

"I'll think about it but for now let's go watch some power rangers," I say pulling my hoodie up. Running out of the bedroom, I smiled when I hear Emily beginning to chase after me and I lead her into the lounge room. Stopping I saw the boys walking in with two bowls of popcorn, I freaked when I couldn't see Elisabeth until I went to the cubby house where Elisabeth was laying surrounded by pillows.

"You look good Mummy," I heard Max say.

"Thanks sweetie," leaning down I kiss the top of his head. Holding the bowls of popcorn for the boys as they crawl into cubby house and get themselves settled.

Emily asked "Should we take a quick family selfie."

"Yeah!" both boys screeched. Handing Emily the popcorn bowls, I crawl into the cubby house mindful of Elisabeth and once I'm settled Emily crawls in herself. Emily hands the boys one bowl of popcorn and they place it in between them. I smile when Emily leans back into me and bring her phone up above us all.

"Say cheese everyone!" Emily said.

"Cheese!" we all say as Emily takes the photo. Pressing play on the remote the episode they were up to continues and they boys are engrossed in it and surprisingly sharing the popcorn nicely. Emily tries to sit up more but I wrap my arms around her preventing her from doing so.

Resting my head on top of Emily's, I say "This is the best thing to come home too."

"I'm glad you're happy beautiful."

"With my family always," I peck Emily's cheek.

"I love you Aria." When I go to say it back we are interrupted by a bark and I see Jack standing outside the cubby house. Emily taps her legs and he comes charging into the cubby house, he eventually settles down on Emily's lap.

"I love you too Emily." I know Emily's smiling even though I couldn't see her, I just knew her to be smiling at this moment. Settling back a little before looking up at the screen and try to follow the story along with the other, it was a challenge but Emily and the boys were happy to explain things to me.

The End.
