No matter how old she gets, a girl just needs her Mom. I didn't realize just how hard Evelyn had been hiding her hurt over losing her parents until they came back.

Helen & Philip took the kids from my moms and had them the rest of the weekend while Evelyn and I finished our solo weekend.

Once they were situated, Evelyn and I headed back home to finish what we started. Making out like teenagers and laughing like hyenas.

We ended the night in our lounging best, watching  Netflix and sipping wine.

"Here babe. Some red." I said to Evelyn as I handed her a glass before going back into the kitchen.

She didn't know it but I was watching her every move, remembering every single detail of her. I watched as she sipped her wine and sat with Gracies head in her lap. I watched her lift Gracie's head and kiss her nose before setting her head back in her lap. Gracie looks at her the way the kids and I do.

Another sip of wine and she set her glass on the table. Pulling a scrunchie off her wrist, she pulled her dark locks into a messy updo. Laughing at something on the television I saw her throw her head back and smile. She looks the same way she did when we first met. Still the long brown locks, that have a natural wave to them. Same lush lips that have a natural plump to them. Same green eyes that sparkle in the light. Same thin waist, long legs, tan skin, perfect teeth.

I smile to myself when I see her wedding ring glisten in the light. That's my girl. The thing that brings me back to reality is when I see her softly grab her "Mama" necklace that has 6 little lettered discs for each of our kids. If I didn't know any better, I never would know she's a mother of 6.

An idea hits me as I watch her and I quickly shoot a text to my mother, her parents, the guys and the producers.

This is gonna be huge.
