Meredith.

two years later.

I just finished dropping the kids off at soccer. Mallory still does ballet but she's also taken up soccer.

at first, she was just doing it because Miles said soccer was only for boys and boys were better at it but she's actually started enjoying it.

Derek and I take turns taking the kids to their things. Mallory has soccer every other day and ballet on the other days, Miles has only soccer every day but he also wants to start baseball.

Since Hope is now two she's started gymnastics. I wasn't sure how she was going to take it at first but I think she's really started liking it.

she likes it when she learns a new trick everyone starts clapping, it boosts her ego. I think she gets that from Derek.

since she's just starting out she's learning the basics, summersaults, back-summersaults. ever since she's learned how to summersault she's been doing it all over the house.

she does it in the living room, she'll do it on top of us in the morning when she tries to wake us up, and she does it all over the yard when we take her outside.

one time I fell asleep on the couch when she fell asleep on the floor and she flipped on top of me and she kicked me in the boob, it left a small bruise for like a week.

once Hope was finished with her gymnastics lesson I took her to the hospital. I kissed her goodbye before leaving her in daycare.

I leave the daycare floor and go to look for Derek. When I find him he's standing at one of the counters looking through some charts.

"Hey," I smile standing next to him. "Hey,
When did you get back?" He says kissing my lips.

"Around twenty minutes ago, I took Hope to gymnastics, she had fun and then I dropped her off at daycare," I say.

"Hey, Mer?" He says. "Yeah?" I say. "What do you think about having another baby?" He says.

"Another baby? Really? Hopes only two..." I say.

"I know but the twins were around her age when we got pregnant with her... we can wait a couple of years or two before trying for another one if you think it's too soon. I just wanted to bring up the subject," he says.

"Well, I haven't really thought about it. I.. I knew we wanted more kids but it hasn't really crossed my mind," I say.

"I'm not pressuring you, Meredith. It's just something I want you to think about, if you think it's too soon then we can wait another year and see if you changed your mind, we can talk about it later," he says.

"All right, you're still picking the kids up once they are finished in two hours?" I ask.

"Yes, I'll push a surgery," he says. "All right, I'll talk to you later," I kiss his cheek before walking away.

Derek.

Two hours have passed and I just pushed my surgery. I grab my keys from the attending's lounge.

I get in my car and pick up the twins from soccer. I drive them back to the hospital and drop them off in daycare.

I kiss the kids goodbye as well as Hope and leave the daycare centre.

I go into the scrub room and scrub in for surgery.
