I put the pancakes on the plate before I went upstairs to wake Reese and Chelsea up for breakfast, and they were eating when I looked at both of them.

"We are going to see if you can get into primary school" I tell them. 

They both looked at me then nodded while started to eat again, when they finished eating I washed then dried, and put the dishes away while the kids went upstairs to get dressed. When they were ready we walked to the school, and we went to the office.

"Hello. How may I help you today?" She asked me, and I smiled nicely at her.

"I am here to see the headteacher it's about if I can enroll these two here" I tell her, she looked at Reese, and Chelsea.

 "Sure, just take a seat please" she said to me.

I nodded then took Reese, and Chelsea so that we can sit down while waiting on the headteacher. Reese tugged on my top, and I gave him a questioning look.

"Auntie does this mean we can't see our friends in England anymore?" Reese asked me. 

"Yeah it does mean you can't see them anymore but you will make new friends here" I tell him.

It must hurt knowing that you won't see your friends anymore, the headteacher walked out before shouting me so I took Reese, and Chelsea into the headteacher's office.

"Please take a seat" she said. 

I nod while taking a seat Chelsea, and Reese took a seat next to me. The headteacher looked at me, and smiled.

"I am Miss bell. What are you here for?" she tells then asked me.

"Hey. I am Kelly I'm here because I am wondering if I could enroll Reese, and Chelsea here." I state while she looked at me, and then nodded at me.

"What age are they" she asks me.

"Reese is 9 but will be 10 in September. Chelsea is 6, and will be 7 in December" I tell her, and Miss bell nods her head again at me.

"Have they been to school before now?" She asked me, I nodded.

 "Yeah" I say to her, and Miss bell nods her head again at me. 

"Well they can come to school here. They will be staring tomorrow" she tells me, and I nod my head at her.

 "Thank you" I say while smiling at her.

We walked out of the school building, made our to the town to buy Reese, and Chelsea school clothes. We got the school clothes, then made our way to subway got our subs before sitting down to eat, and when we finished eating we went home. It's going on 12 Reese, and Chelsea wanted to go to the park so we are currently heading there, it's only a 5 minute walk when we got the park Reese, and Chelsea both ran to the swings.

 "Come, and push us!" Reese shouted at me.

I smiled while walking over to the swings, started pushing the both of them when my phone went off, and I checked my caller ID it's Aidan so I answer it.

*Phone call*

Aidan: "Did Keith call you?"

Me: "Yeah about Reese, and Chelsea's dad?"

Aidan: "Yeah, he called me back he now wants full custody of them."

Me: "You're joking right? Why would he want full custody of them when he just wanted them for the weekend a couple of hours ago?"

Aidan: "Kelly, he's their dad so if he goes to court to get full custody he will."

Me: "He can't do that I just got them back, now he wants to take them away from me."

Aidan: "Kelly. I know it's hard for you but their not your kids, he will get full custody of them."

Me: "I know their not my kids, but when Charlotte moved to England with her boyfriend along with the kids two years ago. I went into depression because it was hard not seeing the kids or her I missed them."

Aidan: "I know your parents told me, they didn't understand why you were depressed though."

Me: "I got used to seeing the kids, and Charlotte all the time. Seeing the kids grow up from being babies to kids made me happy, when I found out she moved down to England with her boyfriend along with kids made me depressed."

Aidan: "Okay but you knew that one day she would have moved away, start an new life somewhere else."

Me: "Charlotte told me that she would never move far away so I could still see the kids all the time..."

Aidan: "When she moved to England you couldn't see them all the time, like she said you would."

Me: "Yeah because she said she knew how much the kids meant to me."

Aidan: "Now that you have them back their dad wants them, you feel like you might go back into depression if he gets them, and doesn't let you see them."

Me: "Yeah I think I would, I will talk to their dad to see what he says."

Aidan: "I will asked him if he's doing anything tomorrow night."

Me: "Okay. What do you want for dinner?"

Aidan: "Macaroni."

Me: "Okay, see ya when you get in from work."

Aidan: "Yeah, bye."

Me: "Bye."

We hung up, I put my phone down then went up stairs to check on Reese,and Chelsea since they were playing the wii. I left them to it before I went back downstairs to do house work, I looked at the time it's going on 4 so I spent the whole day cleaning wow then I went into the kitchen to make dinner since Aidan, and Keith will be home at 5. I was making dinner when I heard a bang from upstairs, I went up to see what the bang was so I walked into the bedroom where the wii is to see Reese ,and Chelsea.

 "What was the bang?" I asked them, Reese, and Chelsea looked like they were going to cry.

 "We were playing the wii. We accidentally banged into the dresser, then t.v fell off, and broke" they tell me so I went over to them, and hugged them.

 "Hey, it's okay accidents happen. You just have to be more careful in the future" I tell them in a gentle voice.
