Josh and liv. Liv and josh. 4 kids. All under the age of 7. Kinda crazy right? Well for the two parents jobs, the media was going crazy ever since the triplets were born. They are even almost 5 months old and people are still shell shocked!

Josh and Olivia were currently on the floor with the triplets while they tried to lift up their heads. Wren was just getting home off the bus anyways, not like it mattered.

"Come on! You're almost there baby." Josh said to Tate who was currently the farthest.

The front door opened and the little girl walked in all happy.

"Hi mommy hi daddy!"

"Hey wren! Look at the triplets! They are almost sitting up and Tate is in the lead." Wren didn't really pay that much attention to what her mom was telling her.

"That's nice. Wanna come play with me?" She asked jumping up and down after she put her bag down.

"Look babe, I can't right now because I have to take care of the babies." She looked at her daughter sadly.

"But you promised..."

"I know sweetheart but sometimes I can't-" Lincoln started crying as he couldn't pick his head up and liv cut off her sentence and helped him.

"Daddy?"

"Wren! Your home!" Olivia just gave him a look.

"Hi daddy. I've been here. Can you play?"

"Baby I love you but I have to help your mom. She's working really hard."

"Oh. Okay..." she looked down sadly.

"After dinner, monkey?" She picked her head back up and smiled.

"Okay!" And with that she ran to her room. When she got inside, she stared at her quiet pink room and sighed. She sat down on the floor and started playing with her Barbies. 20 minutes later, she got bored, so she decided to head downstairs to ask if she could play again.

"Mommy? Can you play now?" Olivia looked up annoyed.

"I'm busy, wren. Daddy said after dinner."

"I know but-"

"Go get some goldfish and watch a shown in here while we handle the babies."

"Okay." She got up and walked into the kitchen but when she went to grab the goldfish they were too high up.

"MOM!" She called. "THEY ARE TOO HIGH UP!"

"WREN! JUST GRAB A STEP STOOL"

"IM STILL NOT TALL ENOUGH." Olivia groaned and turned to josh.

"Take Lincoln for me please. I have to go help her get the fucking goldfish." And without another word she got up and went into the kitchen. She walked over to the cabinet and grabbed her bowl and harshly set it down and poured her some.

"There. Now go watch bluey." Wren could notice her mom's change in behavior so she decided to ask.

"Mama? What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"No are you mad?"

"No I'm just annoyed and stressed." Wren nodded and gave her a hug before you going to sit down.

-dinner-

"Daddy can you cut up my chicken for me?" Wren asked with a butter knife in her hand. Josh was on the phone while holding Lizzie. He told the other person to hold.

"Wren ask your mom. I'm busy." She rolled her eyes and turned to her mom who was also on a phone call and breastfeeding two babies.

"Mom?"

"What." She replied harshly. Wren was shocked.

"Can you cut my food?"

"Just take a big bite." Wren tried to fit it in her mouth but it was way too big.

"MOM!" She yelled. "I DONT THINK IT FITS!" This normally would have made the parents laugh but Olivia's glared at her oldest.

"Then cut it."

"I CANT!-" and then the babies Olivia was feeding stopped eating and started crying.

"Wren! Look at what you did! Now I have to to start all over and me and your father are on work calls!" Wren started to cry. "Please don't cry I already have 3 other crying babies and I don't need another."  Wren got out of her chair and headed up to her room. Olivia looked at josh with wide eyes. Surely she didn't mean it but to wren she did. Josh and liv hung up on the phones and when he looked at his wife he could already see the tears in her eyes.

"Baby don't cry... apologize to her."

"I know but I've been awful and pushing her off for every single thing and she just wants to play or be taken care of- oh my god. Am I a bad mother?"

"No! Livvy no we all just need to adjust and split our time equally. Your doing the best you can she just wants to be there as well now go see her. Thoes babies have been sucking for long enough don't you think? You're gonna have a hickey." She chuckled and set the babies in their rockers before heading upstairs. She quietly opened her door and walked in.

"Hey baby." She walked over to her bed and sat down. Wren was laying on her side facing away  from Olivia. "You did nothing wrong. I'm so so sorry that you sent getting the correct amount of attention and that's on me. You are my first born and I love you so so much. You're my little baby. You deserve more and I need to stop getting wrapped up in myself. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. Mommy." She rolled over and hugged her mom.  "Your boobies look big." Olivia laughed.

"I love you my little wren." She kisses the top of her daughter's head. "It's hard to believe that you, this big girl, fit inside my tummy right?"

"Yeah. I was a little baby!"

"Yep! And I have loved you so much since the day you were born. Your dad also says sorry and he agrees he just needed to stay down there to watch them."

"I love him. And I love you. Especially since I have my own squishys!" Olivia cheeks turned red.

"I love you babe. Definitely your father's daughter."

"What do you mean?" Her cheeks turned an even deeper shade.

"Nothing to worry about babes."
