“It’s enough for me to be sure that you and I exist at this moment.”
― Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of SolitudeMy baby girl turns two year old today, "Ready yet?" Jasper walks I holding Ertha in his arms, I nod walking to them.
Jasper kisses my cheek as I take Ertha from him. "Mamá." Ertha kisses my cheek, after her first birthday she has started to cling to me more.
"My baby." I kiss her face, she grins.
"Cake." She grins making us laugh.
"Let's go." Jasper places his hand on the small of my back.
We walk downstairs and are greeted by the others, I set Ertha down. She runs to Justin, he's her favorite uncle, no doubt.
I turn to Alice and Jacob who started dating last year.
"I can't believe she's already two." Jacob comes to hug me.
"Neither can I." I say hugging him back, I hug Alice next.
It's a private party because I wanted to announce something. Dad arrives with a lot of gifts as always.
"Grampa!" Ertha runs to him, Dad picks her up grinning.
"As day goes by she looks more and more like her father." He says.
We move to cut the cake, Carla holds Ertha while we have dinner.
I stand, "I wanted to tell you all something." I say.
They all watch me curiously, "Mamá." Ertha claps her hands making me laugh.
I look at Jasper, "The last few weeks reminded me of the time you got into the accident almost three years ago." I say.
"Are you okay?" Jasper stands concerned.
I nod, "It's just I've been feeling the same as I felt then." I say.
He brows pulls in confusion, "But this time you are here with me." I place my hands in his. "And you'll be the first one to know that you're going to be a dad again Jasper." I say.
He's eyes are about to fall off his sockets.
"Re-really?" He asks unable to contain his excitement. I nod.
He laughs genuinely and hugs me, "You make me the happiest man darling." He says.
"Me too!" Ertha walks to us.
Jasper picks her up, she wraps her little arm around me and hugs me.
"You are going to be a sister soon princess." Jasper tells her, she just grins as if she understands what we are saying.
The others come to hug me, "I'm going to be an uncle again." Jacob grins showing all of his teeth.

I return to our room after putting Ertha to bed, I hug Jasper from behind who's looking out from the balcony.He turns around and hugs me back, he stares at me like he never wants to look away.
"I can't put to words how happy I am." He says.
I hold his face, "You deserve all the happiness Jasper." I say.
He leans down to kiss me softly on the lips, "Thank you." He says making me smile.
I kiss him again, small kisses turn into long and needy kisses.
We move to the bed and he hovers over me, "Is it safe to do it?" He asks.
"We should probably wait a few more weeks." I say, he nods kissing me again.
He lays next to me and cuddles me into him. "I love you so much." He kisses the top of my head.
I tangle our legs together and push my face into his neck. "I love you too husband." I says.
He hugs me tighter and we fall asleep.

I stopped going to office after six months, today is the gender reveal of my baby.
Jasper didn't try to stop me this time, I walk downstairs and find Jacob enthusiastically arranging for the gender reveal.
He comes to me as soon as he sees me, "I hope it's a boy this time." He says hugging me.
"We'll see." Justin comes from behind me, "I hope it's a girl." He smirks at Jacob before walking away.
"I really want a nephew." Jacob pouts, I pat his cheek.
"Well it's not something I can decide." I shrug.
The party begins, Justin took the initiative to plan this gender reveal. He smiles and hugs me, "How do you like this?" He gestures at the decorations in the garden.
"It's beautiful." I say and he grins.
We sit and have some drinks.
"So here is your big surprise." Justin says and the maids being in small gift boxes. "One of box has the big secret. Everyone pick yours." He says. I nervously bite my lips and look at the pink and blue boxes, I pick a pink one and Jasper picks another pink.
"Do you know?" Jasper asks Justin and he shakes his head.
"The doc didn't give out a hint." He says and picks a pink box himself. Jacob was the only one to pick a blue box. Ertha looks around then picks a blue box for herself.
"On the count of three open the boxes." Justin says and we nod. "One . . . Two . . . Three!" We open and it's empty.
There's a small explosion and we all turn to Jacob who's face is blue, Ertha too has blue paint over her face, she looks startled.
"It's a boy!" Jacob jumps. "It's a boy!"
Jacob runs around like he's hit a jackpot, Ertha laughs and copies him, Justin smacks him but he just teases him and runs to me.
"Told ya." He hugs me and kisses my belly.
"Uncle can't wait to see you buddy." He says and I chuckle.
