Today was the day that Luther, the kids and I were moving into our new home on the farm. We had everyone in on helping us move things in the house. I brought Addison into the house yesterday to pick out her room. I told her that we could paint it any color she wanted. She chose a baby blue and we were going to paint it for her as soon as soon we got everything moved in. We loaded the last box onto the moving truck, and Luther and got in the driver's seat with my dad riding shot gun. Everyone else hopped into my SUV and I followed behind them. My parents haven't seen the house yet. And I think that their reaction will be the same as mine was. In awe. "It was built from the ground up. His parents built it, after Luther's grandfather died and couldn't take care of the farm anymore. So, they packed up their life and moved out here to take care of the farm." I explained to my mom. She nodded. "You ready for this? Remember that you can come home anytime you want." She started to cry. I nodded. "Momma. I'm ready. This time I'm ready. I've got this. And I will come and visit you everyday I'm sure. And you will probably be here just as much. You're welcome anytime." I assured her. She nodded. When we got to the house my mom smiled. "Yellow. Your favorite." Is the first thing she said when she got out of the car. My Uncle Dereck pulled in and he came up and hugged me from behind. Aunt Jenna was due any day now. She was getting so big and I couldn't wait. She asked me to be the god mother to the boys, and I was so excited. We un packed the car, and the truck, and my mom and Aunt Jenna helped me start to un pack. "Be careful Aunt Jenna. You aren't supposed to be lifting anything over 5 pounds." I reminded her. She chuckled. "I can carry a lamp into the living room. Relax." She said with attitude. I laughed. Luther went upstairs with my brother and my dad to paint the rooms so they would dry by tonight. We were camping out on the air matresses in the living room for tonight. I moved the couch to where I wanted it, and set up some the end tables and the TV for the kids. Around dinner time, everyone decided to leave and go get something to eat. "I love you guys. Call us if you need anything." My mom reminded us. "Love you too Abby. We will thank you." Luther responded first. I replied also and once everyone left I started unpacking dishes into the cupboards. Luther snuck up on me and grabbed me from behind. He kissed my neck, and I smiled. "Why don't cha take a break, and come upstairs with me, and let me show ya the bedroom." He winked. I giggled. I knew that Grayson was sleeping on the couch and Addie was on her way to falling asleep too, so I agreed. He helped me up the stairs and when I walked up there, our room was already done. All that needed to be done was the bed, and the decorating. I looked at him surpised. "I've had some of the guys get a head start. I hope you don't mind." He smiled at me, shyly. I giggled. "Not at all. I love this. Thank you." I said grabbing the collar of his shirt and pulling him into me. I kissed him for a minute or so, and then he grabbed my hand and pulled me into the hallway. He showed me that Addison's room was already done and set up so she could sleep there tonight. She just needed to unpack her toys. Grayson's was done as well. I let out a tear and hugged him. I didn't know what to say, so I hugged him. "I love you." He said rocking me back and forth. I smiled. "I love you too babe." I said letting go and going down stairs. I walked over to the kids who were sleeping and decided to leave them there for the night, and not disturb them. I softly sang to them.


Caterpillar in the tree

How you wonder who you'll be

Can't go far but you can always dream

Wish you may and wish you might

Don't you worry, hold on tight

I promise you there will come a day

Butterfly fly away


Butterfly fly away

Got your wings, now you can't stay

Take those dreams and make them all come true.


I rubbed Addison's head, and whispered to them both. "Thank you for being my world." I smiled. Luther heard me, and he picked me up and he set me in his lap in the recliner chair. I nestled my head into his neck, and I smiled as I kissed his chest. "Luther?" I asked. He nodded, to sleepy to respond. "Thank you for being my whole entire world." I said thankful for him. If it wasn't for him, I don't know where I'd be today. I started a life with him, and I couldn't wait to see where it took us. "You're welcome love. Thanks for being you." He replied sleepy. I kissed his fore head, and I let him fall asleep. My world was complete. I had my beautiful kids, and my sweet loving husband. It couldn't get much better.


The End!!
