A few hours later, Izzy sat down with Logan and Blake.
"You know mommy loves you both very much right?" She asked. The boys nodded. "And I love Braxtyn and Lily."
"We love you too mommy." Logan said. Izzy sighed.
"How would you feel about having another brother?" She asked. The boys smiled.
"How old is he?" Logan asked.
"What's his name?" Blake asked.
"He is 2 and his name is Brycen." Izzy told them.
"When are we getting him?" Blake asked.
"Later today." Izzy told him. The boys smiled.
"Mommy? Can we get more sisters too?" Logan asked.
"How many sisters do you want?" Izzy asked him.
"I have three brothers and me. I want three more sisters too." Logan said.
"You want mommy to have eight babies?" Izzy asked smiling. Logan nodded.
"Yes." He said smiling.
"We'll see what happens when we go to get Brycen." Izzy told him. She got everyone dressed and loaded in the car then headed to the orphanage. When they got there Logan refused to get out of his seat and started crying.
"I don't wanna go back." He cried.
"Logan, your not going back. We have to pick up Brycen and you have to help me choose which sisters you want." Izzy said softly. Logan nodded and got out of his seat slowly. Izzy grabbed the double stroller and put the twins in it and walked with the kids into the orphanage. Mrs. Graham welcomed them at the door.
"Hi Logan. Hi Blake." She said. "Are you boys being good for mommy?" The boys nodded.
"Mommy said we're gonna get a new brother and new sisters." Blake said.
"Oh? Is that right?" Mrs. Graham asked. Logan nodded. "Well then right this way." Izzy and the kids followed Mrs. Graham to the orphanages playroom.
"Where's Brycen." Logan asked.
"Brycen, Lakelyn, Jayna and Addilyn come here please." Mrs. Graham said. The kids walked over to her. "Brycen, Lakelyn and Addilyn are triplets. Jayna is their younger sister."
"Will this be a foster situation or full adoption?" Izzy asked.
"Their biological father died three months after Jayna was born and their biological mother lost all parental rights a month ago. So far no one wants to adopt all four of them." Mrs. Graham told her.
"I'll take them." Izzy said. Mrs. Graham nodded.
"I'll get the paperwork ready and by the end of the month they will be officially adopted." Mrs. Graham said. She went to her office and printed off the adoption papers for each kid then grabbed a pen and took it out to Izzy. Izzy sat down at the table and sighed.
"Do we know anything about them besides their first names?" She asked.
"The triplets were born February 22, 2021. Jayna was born September 2, 2021." Mrs. Graham said. Izzy nodded and started writing.
