Prairies of Heart

Chapter 21

And then we rolled down a hill. Our asses covered in mud and I yelled at him "Now it look like I shit myself"; Molly laughed

They were all at a picnic and the Elly mountains had indeed been gorgeous with snow ontop that popped off the blue on the bottom. They were discussing funny moments with their husbands and how they met and Summer played with her necklace while drinking some wine. Everyone around her was sweet. There was Molly the wife of Connor, Moira wife of Royce, Elliot wife of Bruce and Caroline wife of Sam. All the women were glad to have another friend to their group, they never shamed Summer for taking over as a mother to Maddy or for how she met Henry. The kids were all playing baseball in the background with the dogs and the men. Summer laughed at how messy Maddy got in her dress but she didn't care, as long as she had fun

Tell me, how did your husband react when Mason came along. Mine passed out on the floor and we had to call the doctor, yall remember that; Elliot said and all the girls laughed sipping wine

Masons not technically mine. He was my sisters kid and she died at birth; Summer said

Oh my! I am so sorry for your loss darling; Elliot said and hugged her

The women were sincere and didn't shame. They all had confusing background stories too

Henry is happy though; Moira said

Yes! He loves Mason and they even found that dog when we came here; Summer said looking at Piggy

Sam, he panicked when I told him I was with child and he ran out the door. A few seconds later, all yall came into the house and as it turned out Sam was talking to his boys telling the news of how he was gonna set up a kids room and we all sat their laughing. I laughed so hard I peed myself; Caroline patted her lap and laughed

Wait, why are you only drinking the lemon; Elliot asked Molly

Well I am with child. Baby number 2; Moira said

Everyone got up and hugged her and cried

Oh my goodness!; Summer said

I wanted it to be a surprise but yall got the cat out; Moira said

Have you told Royce; Elliot asked

Not just yet; Moira laughed

I saw yall drinking wine; Molly said

Thats grape juice; Moira said
