"Alright, gang," Joe sighs. "Ready?"
"Ready daddy!" Willa giggles, jumping.
"Ready!" Delphine giggles.
He looks at me, brows raised.
"Ready," I force a grin, nodding.
"Londyn, Jess?" Joe raises his brows.
"I'm a little nervous, but let's do this," Londyn nods.
"It won't be that bad," Jess shrugs. "It was really stressful when they were younger," Jess responds.
Londyn laughs, nodding. "Okay, then, yeah let's do it."
Jess and Londyn begin to take the girls outside, Joe holding me behind and placing a hand on my back.
"Are you up for this today, baby?"
I sigh, nodding. "Yeah. The girls are excited, I'll just be watching you and checking on them. I'll be fine."
He nods, kissing my head. "Okay, let's go. As long as you're sure."
"I'm sure," I nod, intertwining our fingers and walking outside with him.

"Hello!" Joe grins, the door opening, and the blonde Joe had shown me a photo of appearing.
"Hello!" she says, hugging him. "It's so nice to have you."
"It's nice to be here," he grins. "Thank you so much and thank you for allowing me to bring my crew too."
"Oh, of course," she smiles, looking over at us. "Hello!"
"Hi," I smile politely.
"Daddy," Willa says, reaching for him.
"What's up?" he asks, his brows furrowing as he grabs her from me. "What's wrong?"
She huffs out a breath, putting her head on his shoulder.
He looks at me, confused.
I shrug and Meredith brings all of us inside, showing us the room they had put together for the girls to hang out in.
"Oh, look girls! You guys are gonna hang out in here for a bit while daddy works," Joe says, crouching down to put Willa down.
"No!" Willa whines, holding onto him.
"Willa," he sighs, looking up at me.
"Baby, we gotta let daddy work," I tell her, rubbing her back.
"Mama," she says, reaching for me.
I sigh, looking at him before back at her. "Baby, you've gotta stay with Jess and Londyn. Mama's going with daddy."
"No!" she whines, starting to cry.
"Princess, listen," Joe says, holding her hand. "Mommy and daddy are going to be right out there. You'll be able to hear us the whole time. We won't be far."
"I want you," she sniffles.
"I know, princess. But I have to work. Okay? So, you're gonna chill in here with Jess and Londyn and sissy. Me and mommy are gonna go out here. Can you be brave? I think you can."
She nods. "I can!"
"That's right!" he says, holding out his hand for a high five.
She gives him one, giggling before hugging me.
"I love you," I tell her, kissing her temple.
"Love you mama!" she grins.
We say bye to Delphine and exit the room, noticing Greg talking amongst everyone. Fifteen-ish people standing around talking and planning isn't intimidating at all.
