Lola and her husband are both doctors, they have two children who are absolutely incredible, and they’re happy.
We’re all happy.
Me, Felix, Lila, Adam, Jake, and little three-year-old Anna sit in front of everybody as she tangles with the bow in her hair.
She looks up, grinning. “Bow go boom! Bow go boom!”
“Soon, sweetness,” I say. “Bow go boom soon.”
“Mom, I’m ready,” Lila says.
“I know you are, angel.”
“I’m ready too,” Adam says.
“Not anymore!” Jake laughs, springing on him.
“All right, boys,” Felix says, walking over with a laugh. “How about this? Be good for Mommy, and I’ll wrestle you both after.”
“Really?” Adam grins.
“You will?” Jake adds.
“Scout’s honor,” my husband says, placing his hand over his chest.
He looks so similar to the day I met him, at least physically. He’s got the same silver hair and the same muscular body.
But there’s a new easiness to him, his smiles coming quicker, no darkness lingering in his eyes.
He’s as filled with love as we all are, and soon it’s time….
Everybody’s ready, posing for the photo.
I set the timer and hurry over, sinking into Felix’s embrace.
“How long did you set it for?” Lila asks.
“Fifteen seconds, angel. When it’s five, it’ll beep.”
Everybody waits.
The second the beep sounds, Adam and Jake start counting down together.
“Five…”
Felix leans close, whispering in my ear, his warm breath moving over me.
“Four…”
“I saw the test,” he says softly.
“Three…”
“In the cupboard. Are we thinking…”
“Two…”
I look up at him, and nod as heavenly light surges through me. “Yeah, I might be. Another baby.”
“One…”
“Are you cool with that?” I ask.
“Cheese!”
I turn to the camera just in time to pose for the photo, then turn back to Felix.
He’s smiling wide, squeezing me possessively.
“Cool with it? I can’t wait. I love you.”
I clutch tightly to him. “I love you too.”
“And I love you three!” Jake runs over. “Daddy, wrestling time!”
